Central invoice receipt of the city administration of Chemnitz

Digitalisation and the more efficient design of processes as well as the optimisation of existing processes play an important role in the city administration of Chemnitz. On the one hand, the legal requirements and, on the other, the latest digital technologies need to be implemented. Incoming invoices are of particular importance in this context.

In order to ensure rapid forwarding to the responsible organisational unit, the introduction of central invoice receipt is linked to a uniform invoice address. The central invoice address is

City of Chemnitz - Accounting
Organisational unit (department/office/institution)
P.O. Box 1121
09070 Chemnitz

When addressing invoices, the organisational unit must be replaced by the name of the department, office or institution, e.g. Main Office or Office 62.

From now on, companies can send invoices to the City of Chemnitz not only by letter or e-mail(rechnung(at)stadt-chemnitz.de) but also fully electronically as XRechnung. XRechnung invoices offer the advantage that they can be allocated and processed much more quickly.

With this in mind, the City of Chemnitz is opening up access for electronic invoices via Bundesdruckerei's central invoice receipt platform. All contractors of the City of Chemnitz can submit XRechnung invoices at https://xrechnung-bdr.de.

All contractors of the City of Chemnitz must register once and free of charge with the central invoice receipt platform. The invoice data can then either be entered manually or an electronic invoice that has already been created can be stored in XRechnung format. The electronic invoices are deemed to have been submitted once they have been successfully entered/uploaded. The XRechnung is then deemed to have been delivered to the City of Chemnitz.

As many authorities use this invoicing platform, it is important that the invoice is correctly addressed. For this reason, the so-called routing ID must be specified for each invoice.

The routing ID of the City of Chemnitz is: 14511000-SV01-31

To ensure that the invoice can also be assigned to the responsible department, the organisational unit of the Chemnitz City Administration that issued the order must be entered as the additional address. The ordering organisational unit or the number of the organisational unit is specified in the order or contract documents.
