Spain's 21% standard VAT rate is correct and current, with UBL 2.1 / Peppol export available for every invoice. The honest number for what remains is VeriFactu, and we want to be direct rather than upbeat about it: Spain has attached penalties of up to €150,000 per year, since 29 July 2025, to billing software that misrepresents its compliance status.
InvoiceKit is not VeriFactu-certified and does not connect to the Spanish tax authority. If VeriFactu applies to your business, you need software built specifically for it. This 40% reflects InvoiceKit's own internal engineering checklist for Spain — it is not a government compliance certification.
