Electronic invoicing for suppliers

All invoices addressed to the different companies of the Institut Català de Finances Group (ICF, ICF Capital and IFEM) must be submitted through the e.FACT general electronic invoice entry point, managed by the AOC Consortium.

Invoices outside this system will not be accepted.

The e.FACT is the official channel for submitting electronic invoices to the public sector entities of the Government of Catalonia. It allows you to register, validate and send invoices securely and with full legal validity.

  • Send the invoice in electronic format (Facturae) via the e.FACT portal:

    • In order to issue an electronic invoice, the supplier must have a valid digital certificate recognised by the Catalan Certification Agency, where the CIF/NIF of this certificate coincides with that of the issuer of the invoice. You can consult the list of accepted certificates at this link.

    • If you are a natural person, if you do not have a digital certificate, you can use your digital ID to sign the electronic invoices you issue.

  • In the event that the supplier does not have the digital certificates, they can use other free tools that generate invoices in this format:

    • EMIX (recommended): invoice generator of the Government of Catalonia.

    • Facturae: through the free application Electronic invoicing management offered by the Ministry of Industry, Tourism and Trade.

    • B2B Router: a cloud service that allows you to create electronic invoices in Facturae format easily, without the need for a digital certificate, free of charge and send it directly to the Catalan Public Administrations through the e.FACT service.

  • Regardless of the platform used, correctly indicate the following information:
    • ICF DIR3 code: A09031434
    • IFEM DIR3 code: A09006595
    • ICF Capital DIR3 Code: A09018880
    • NOC or order number that will be communicated by the person responsible for the contract.
    • In the case of payment by bank transfer, all invoices must include the account number where it must be made.
    • Ensure that the invoice coincides with the agreed conditions (amount, tax ID, concept, etc.).

  2. Click on "Send invoice".

  3. You followed the steps on the form:
    • Enter the DIR3 Code
