How to file a foreign invoice

From receiving the invoice to the file you upload to ePorezna. For sole traders and small companies paying for foreign services.

Steps

Forward the invoice to your own address

Every account has its own email address, printed on the main screen. Forward the message and the document appears in the list. An invoice that did not arrive by email can be uploaded under “Učitaj račun” or typed in under “Unesi račun ručno”.
Confirm what was read off it

Supplier, date, currency and net amount are read from the document. Open the invoice and check them before the calculation — the reading is an aid to data entry, not a source of truth.
Check the calculation

The exchange rate is fetched from the Croatian National Bank for the invoice date, and reverse-charge VAT is worked out for you. The calculation screen shows the net amount, the VAT and the total to be filed.
Close the month

The month screen lists every invoice in the period with the totals. An invoice that has entered a generated filing can no longer be removed; a correction goes in an amended return.
