OR data

Must an invoice include the customer’s Commercial Register details, such as the court, section and entry number?

Short answer

No. Under § 3a of the Commercial Code, details of registration in the Commercial Register, including the registration court, section and entry number, are stated for the issuer or supplier. The invoice does not have to reproduce the customer’s corresponding Commercial Register details.
