Frequently Asked Questions

Does PaperworkAI handle German VAT (Mehrwertsteuer) automatically?

Yes. PaperworkAI detects the applicable VAT rate (19%, 7%, or 0%) from each invoice line item and maps it to the correct German tax category automatically. No manual VAT coding needed.

Can I export invoices to DATEV for my German accountant?

Yes. Every invoice can be exported in DATEV CSV format that your German accountant can import directly into their DATEV Kanzlei software. The export takes one click.

What happens if an invoice has multiple VAT rates?

PaperworkAI handles split-VAT invoices correctly — each line item is mapped to its own VAT rate, producing a fully itemised record per invoice.

Can I mark invoices as paid and track outstanding bills?

Yes. Each invoice has a status field: paid, pending, or disputed. Outstanding bills are visible in your expense dashboard and flagged in your Morning Briefing.
