Unlimited invoices with VeriFactu, QR code and submission to the AEAT included. One user, no card.
VeriFactu can cost €0.
See why it should not cost you anything.
VeriFactu, Spain's invoicing-software regulation, is not a tax-authority fee. The price comes from the software you choose and the work you need to do around each invoice.

Cost guide
The guide does not calculate the cost of time or of external tools.
Do not confuse the rule
with the software bill.
There are three different layers. Only one has a price you pay to a provider; another cannot honestly be turned into a figure without knowing your business.
| Layer | What it is | What it costs and why | Amount | Unit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 01 · The rule | VeriFactu | It has no fee: you pay the tax authority nothing for generating compliant records. | €0 | no public fee |
| 02 · The tool | Invoicing software | It can be free for unlimited invoicing, or paid when you need banking, tax returns or a team. | €0–39 | /month in Cofactu |
| 03 · The operation | Your time and other tools | Customers, collections, quotes, accounting or migrations can still carry a cost. | Variable | — |
Product proof · free plan A €0 invoice
A €0 invoice
is not half an invoice.
All your invoices, with no monthly cap, follow the same flow: verifiable record, QR code and submission to the AEAT.

Two zero-cost paths. One route to grow without moving.
The difference is not complying. It is how much work stays inside the same tool after you issue.
Path A €0
You only need a very basic tool
The AEAT's free application generates VeriFactu records. It is designed for very low volume, with no management of customers, collections or accounting.

Path B From €0
You want to start free and keep a way to grow
Cofactu includes VeriFactu with no invoice limit. When you need more tasks, you change plan without migrating your data.
Start free →What you pay and what you are solving.
The right tool depends on your volume and the tasks you really need to cover.

The questions behind “is it free?”
The answer depends on whether you are asking about the obligation, the software or the work afterwards.
Questions about your case? hola@cofactu.com →Do I have to pay for VeriFactu in Spain?
VeriFactu itself is not a fee: you pay the tax authority nothing for “having VeriFactu”. What can cost money is the compliant invoicing software you use to generate the records. That software can be free, like the AEAT app or Cofactu's free plan, or paid if you need more features. Complying with the obligation can cost €0.
How much does it cost to set up VeriFactu?
It depends on the tool. With Cofactu's free plan it costs €0: unlimited invoices, with VeriFactu, QR code and submission to the AEAT included. The AEAT app is also free but very basic. Cofactu's paid plans start at €39/month and add contacts, banking, tax returns and a team, not more invoices. With VeriFactu you do not pay to comply; you pay to do more.
How do I get VeriFactu for free?
Two options at no cost: (1) Cofactu's free plan, which includes full VeriFactu (verifiable record, QR code and submission to the AEAT) with unlimited invoices and no card; or (2) the AEAT's free application, more limited and only advisable for very low volume. With Cofactu you also move up a plan as you grow, without changing program.
Is Cofactu's VeriFactu a separate paid module?
No. In Cofactu, VeriFactu is included in every plan, the free one too. It is not an extra, not a module you buy separately and it has no set-up fee. Unlike some traditional suites, you do not pay a surcharge for obeying the law.
Who is exempt from VeriFactu?
Outside it are companies on the SII, businesses in a foral territory (the Basque Country with TicketBAI, and Navarre) and those who invoice strictly by hand with no software. If you are exempt you do not need to pay anything; and if you want, you can still use VeriFactu voluntarily. We cover it in detail on the exemptions page.
Is free software enough for good?
For very low volume, yes. But a very basic free tool falls short as soon as you need customer management, collections, quotes, accounting or tax returns, and you end up using several separate tools. Cofactu's free plan avoids that: you start without paying and grow on the same platform when you need to.
