Factur-X metadata

FX-XMP4 rules

The XMP block that tells a receiver this PDF is a Factur-X invoice, which file holds the data, and which profile it claims. A mismatch between the metadata and the invoice decides which set of fields is mandatory — in France, that matters.

FX-XMP-01warningA Factur-X PDF must carry XMP metadata declaring the document type, attachment filename and conformance level.
FX-XMP-02warningThe XMP metadata must contain the Factur-X or ZUGFeRD extension schema.
FX-XMP-03warningThe filename declared in the XMP metadata must match an actual attachment.
FX-XMP-04warningThe conformance level declared in XMP must match the guideline declared in the invoice XML.

Check an invoice against the FX-XMP rules

…or paste the XML instead

Nothing is stored, and the whole invoice is checked, not just this rule. A PDF only works if it is Factur-X / ZUGFeRD — a PDF with the invoice XML inside it.
