Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about formats, browser privacy, and file handling.
What is Factur-X and how does hybrid e-invoicing work?▼
Factur-X is a Franco-German hybrid electronic invoicing standard. It combines a human-readable PDF/A-3 visual document with an embedded, machine-readable 'factur-x.xml' file adhering to European standard EN 16931.
What is the difference between Factur-X and German ZUGFeRD?▼
They are technically identical. Factur-X is the French name and ZUGFeRD 2.x is the German name for the exact same unified specification, ensuring cross-border interoperability across the European Union.
Which Factur-X profiles are supported (Minimum, Basic, Basic WL, EN 16931)?▼
Our tool supports all official profiles: 'Minimum' (essential tax and header data for public portals), 'Basic WL' (without line items), 'Basic' (simple itemized transactions), and 'EN 16931 / Comfort' (full EU standard compliance).
Is Factur-X compliant with the French mandatory e-invoicing reform?▼
Yes. Factur-X is officially recognized as a core format for France's electronic invoicing mandate and is accepted across certified Partner Dematerialization Platforms (PDP) and the Public Billing Portal (PPF).
Can Factur-X invoices be submitted to public platforms like Chorus Pro?▼
Yes! Public sector buyers and B2G portals like France's Chorus Pro natively ingest Factur-X PDFs, automatically populating accounting fields from the embedded XML.
How is the factur-x.xml invoice data embedded into the PDF/A-3 container?▼
The XML is embedded into the PDF's '/EmbeddedFiles' dictionary with strict AFRelationship tags ('/Data' or '/Alternative') and validated against the official Factur-X XSD schema.
Can clients open and read a Factur-X invoice using standard Adobe Acrobat?▼
Yes. Anyone can open, view, and print a Factur-X invoice like any standard PDF. The embedded XML remains safely housed inside the PDF without interfering with normal human reading.
How do ERP and accounting systems automatically extract data from Factur-X files?▼
When imported into modern accounting software (SAP, Sage, QuickBooks, Odoo), the system automatically detects the embedded XML payload and extracts invoice numbers, VAT rates, line totals, and IBANs with zero manual data entry.
What mandatory invoice fields are required in the embedded XML payload?▼
Mandatory fields include invoice number, issue date, seller VAT ID / SIRET, buyer address, line item descriptions, tax breakdown per VAT category, and the payable grand total.
Are financial numbers, IBANs, and company tax IDs stored or shared by Docgin?▼
Never. Your invoices and financial data are processed ephemerally in isolated sandboxes and wiped immediately after generation. We never store, inspect, or retain your financial records.
