Why invoice compliance matters
01

Tax rules, e-invoicing, legal notes — already taken care of.

Germany is rolling out mandatory e-invoicing for B2B transactions. Since January 2025, businesses must be able to receive structured e-invoices. Sending them becomes mandatory in stages through 2028.

A correct invoice means faster payment, cleaner Finanzamt records, and no awkward follow-ups. Kikiform handles the format, the tax rules, and the validation — automatically.

About
02

Made in Berlin. Hosted in Europe. Built for here.

Kikiform was built by freelancers who have filed the same Steuererklärungen, dealt with the same Finanzamt letters, and been just as confused by E-Rechnung as you. We don't do banking, sell insurances or offer full-stack accounting software, we do just one thing — your invoices.

The app runs on servers in Frankfurt. Your data stays in the EU. Simple, local, auditable.

"I built this because every other tool wanted me to connect my bank account or learn a whole accounting system. I just needed a correct invoice."

— Matas Petrikas, web-developer & music producer, Berlin

Frankfurt, Germany
Hetzner servers — EU-owned, EU-operated. Your data never leaves European jurisdiction.

No bank access, ever
