Receiving and Processing Approach: The Austrian federal government has established various methods to receive and process e-invoices from economic operators. These include:
- Direct Upload or Manual Creation: Economic operators can submit e-Invoices directly through the e-Rechnung.gv.at platform by utilizing a web form or connecting through a web service.
- Business Service Portal (USP) Authentication: The Business Service Portal (USP) provides authentication services necessary for e-Invoice submission. It eliminates the need for electronic signatures, simplifying the process for companies.
- Alternative Submission Methods: In addition to e-Rechnung.gv.at, companies can also submit invoices as paper, email, PDF, or through a solution provider managing the transmission. Solution providers connected to the Federal Business Service Portal (USP) can forward their clients' invoices without individual registration.
At the federal level, public administrations process e-Invoices through automated and integrated systems linked to their workflow and core systems. However, processing methods may differ for other public entities, particularly those without Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems, which may handle e-Invoices manually.
