Hi everyone,

I’m hoping that someone could shed some light on my invoice/factura dilemma, I have been going back and forth with the employer for the past few days and will go insane soon unless I have some real info on how to go about getting paid…

I am a Dane living in Madrid temporarily, following my partner’s work-project here.
I work in design and am not registered as aut?nomo since it seems to make no sense to me for such a short period of time.

I have had two commission-projects in Madrid, both paying 800 euros each. The first company wanted me to write a factura with a larger amount brutto, MINUS the 15% I.R.P.F., ending with 800 euros to be paid.

The second company wants me to write 800 euros, MINUS the 15% I.R.P.F, ending with a smaller amount, and have rejected the invoice that was done the same way as for my first project.

Now, since I don’t want to be doing something completely illegal here, I contacted a lawyer who suggested that I instead write the company a “recib?” for the amount received (800 e).
The company is however telling me that they only want the factura ending with the smaller amount.

What AM I supposed to do? (yes, I KNOW I should’ve registered as aut?nomo…) And what can the company actually demand?

I hope I am making sense and I hope there is someone out there able to give me some advice!
Thank you,
Gabi

If you are not registered as aut?nomo how can you possibly issue an invoice (factura)??  :wow:  Particulares (individuals) can’t do it ...

Sounds like the second company is just trying to get away with paying less.  Did you ever stipulate to them in writing whether the 15% IRPF was included in the set price or not?

If you have a paper trail to back yourself up, you’ll do better.

Tourist, is that 3000 euros a year, and u dont have to be registered as aut?nomo?
