Yes, every **single transaction,** in real-time (i.e. **electronic invoicing**)\n\nThis is **already required** in most **LatAm** countries and India, and the majority of **European countries** are making it mandatory in the next **1-3 years**.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post\u0026id=68825\u0026key=user_uploads/1138452/fcc7d3af-be8e-41da-9e85-45dd7b4b4286)\n\n## **🎉  Our solution: one API, global compliance**\n\nOur API receives the information of a **sale in a simple open-source format** and **converts it to a locally-compliant invoice,** including\n\n* Sync with tax authorities reporting requirements (e-invoicing).\n* Generate a custom-branded PDF invoice and send it to customers.\n* Integrate with the company’s stack (e.g. ERP, billing, payments, reconciliation).\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post\u0026id=68825\u0026key=user_uploads/1138452/457c38ec-ba3d-49b8-a18c-4f8e1ddc7fef)\n\nInvopop is already live in **Colombia, Spain \u0026 Portugal**. Many more coming soon: Mexico, Italy, Peru…\n\n### **🚀 Why we built Invopop**\n\n**Sam** was previously **co-founder \u0026 CTO of Cabify**, and as they expanded to LatAm, complying with the e-invoicing requirements became a nightmare. As he could not find a global provider to solve this, he built Invopop.\n\n**Juan** worked as a **consultant in Mexico** and was blown away by how complex the e-invoicing system was. When he learned this is becoming mandatory in Europe, he knew Invopop was needed!\n\n### **🙏🏼 Ask**\n\nIf you want to make sure your company complies with the new regulation: Schedule a demo with us [here](https://savvycal.com/juan-moliner/15min-public)!","slug":"Hu5-invopop-global-sales-tax-compliance-with-a-single-integration","created_at":"2023-01-30T01:47:23.981Z","updated_at":"2026-05-25T05:05:45.635Z","total_vote_count":25,"url":"https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/Hu5-invopop-global-sales-tax-compliance-with-a-single-integration","share_image_url":"//bookface-static.ycombinator.com/assets/ycdc/yc-og-image-c440a0ad1dacfb86eeeb343717479cc54d256614449b4ef719977a0a451f8bc8.png","company":{"id":28079,"name":"Invopop","slug":"invopop","url":"https://www.invopop.com/","logo":"https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/5903341d8e42bfa4053fabf5f02effd07eda7793.png","batch":"Winter 2023","industry":"B2B","tags":["FinOps","Fintech","Compliance"],"search_path":"https://bookface.ycombinator.com/company/28079"}}
