In 2025, independent workers will notice some changes in the emission of green receipts. Although the process remains simple, there are new fields of filling and features that make the system more efficient. In this article, we explain everything clearly and accessible.
Who has to issue green receipts?
Green receipts are mandatory for independent workers who have category B yields, that is, for those who provide services on their own. This group includes liberal professionals, small entrepreneurs and workers from commercial, industrial and agricultural areas.
If the annual yield is over 50 thousand euros or in the organized accounting regime, it is mandatory to use a certified billing program.
In addition, all paper -issued or certified software invoices must be communicated to finances by the 5th of the following month.
The three types of green receipts
When issuing a green receipt, you can choose from three options:
- Invoice: Used when the service was provided, but has not yet been paid.
- Receipt: issued when payment is received and the invoice has already been issued.
- Requiso Invoice: when payment is made at the time of service.
The system also allows us to discharge and send the receipts electronically, ensuring greater security and traceability of payments.
