An IMFX file is a Factur-X invoice container, primarily using the ZIP internal file format. Factur-X is a standard for electronic invoicing based on a hybrid approach that combines XML and PDF/A-3, ensuring both human readability and automated processing. The XML portion contains structured invoice data according to the UN/CEFACT Cross Industry Invoice XML standard, while the PDF/A-3 part provides a visually presentable version of the invoice, often including attachments like delivery notes or order confirmations. This combination makes Factur-X invoices suitable for various accounting systems and archiving purposes, promoting interoperability and compliance with legal requirements. This file format is classified as Invoice.
