Open a UBL or Peppol invoice and read it
A UBL invoice is XML made for accounting software. Drop the file here, click the invoice number, and you get a readable invoice you can print or save as PDF.
Try it with your file:
| Invoice no. | Date | Seller | Buyer | Net | VAT | Gross | Cur. | Format |
|---|
What you see
- Invoice or credit note number, issue date, due date and delivery date
- Seller and buyer with address and VAT ID
- Every invoice line with quantity, unit, unit price, VAT rate and net amount
- VAT breakdown per category and rate, with exemption reasons
- Totals: net, VAT, gross, prepaid and amount due
- Payment details: IBAN, BIC and payment reference, plus notes from the seller
The arithmetic is checked as well: if net + VAT does not equal gross, or the lines do not add up, the invoice is flagged.
How to open a UBL invoice
- Drop the
.xmlfile above (several files or a ZIP work too). - Click the invoice number in the table.
- Use “Print / save as PDF” to keep a readable copy.
Which files work?
Any UBL 2.1 Invoice or CreditNote: Peppol BIS Billing 3.0, XRechnung (UBL), Croatian eRačun, NLCIUS, EHF and OIOUBL. Files wrapped in a Peppol envelope (SBDH) are unwrapped automatically. UN/CEFACT CII files and ZUGFeRD/Factur-X PDFs open the same way.
To get many invoices into a spreadsheet instead, see UBL to Excel.
Private by design
The file is parsed in your browser and never uploaded. Keep the original XML: it is the legal invoice; the printed view is a readable copy.
Questions
Is the viewer free?
Yes. Viewing and printing are free and unlimited, with no account.
Can I validate the invoice here?
Only the arithmetic is checked. For full Peppol or EN 16931 rule validation use a validator from your access point or the official validation artefacts.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes, in any modern mobile browser. Printing and saving as PDF depend on your phone’s browser.
What if the file is not recognised?
The tool tells you which file could not be read and why, for example when the XML is not an invoice.
