What is an e-invoice?
An e-invoice is an invoice in a structured, machine-readable format. Instead of a plain image PDF, the invoice data is contained in an XML file that software can process automatically. In Germany, receiving electronic invoices in the B2B sector has been becoming mandatory step by step since 2025.
For people, however, such an XML file is hard to read. This viewer makes it understandable again: it extracts seller, buyer, line items, totals, tax and payment details and shows them as a clear invoice – and checks along the way whether the file is a valid e-invoice format.
XRechnung
A pure XML file, mainly for invoices to public authorities. It contains only the structured data – without a visible PDF.
ZUGFeRD / Factur-X
A PDF with an embedded XML file. You see an ordinary PDF invoice, while the machine-readable data is additionally stored in the background.
Your invoice stays private
The file is checked only in memory – it is not stored, not logged and not shared. Once displayed, it is gone from the server.

How do I open an XRechnung?
Upload the XML file here – the viewer displays all invoice data immediately in a readable form. You need no extra software and no sign-up.
What is the difference between XRechnung and ZUGFeRD?
XRechnung is a pure XML file, while ZUGFeRD (or Factur-X) is a PDF with embedded XML. The viewer processes both and automatically detects which format it is.
Is my data stored?
No. The file is checked only in memory and is neither stored nor logged. No invoice content is kept.
What exactly does the viewer check?
It detects the format, checks the structure against the official XSD schema (UBL or CII) and displays all included data. It does not replace a full check of all EN16931 business rules as performed by the official validator.
