What is TicketBAI?

TicketBai is the invoice management system (billing software), a new invoice reporting model for companies in the Basque Country. It is a joint project of the three Provincial Treasuries and the Basque Government (Gipuzkoa, Alava, Biscay) the objective of which is the implementation of a series of legal and technical obligations. This Project revolves around a set of new technical and legal obligations that will directly impact how businesses create invoices/receipts.

This new system will allow the Provincial Treasuries to control the income of their economic activities and, especially, of those activities that have final consumers as clients.
