Invoice us

We require suppliers to send invoices electronically. 
E-invoicing improves the reliability of invoice delivery, accelerates processing through more efficient handling, and reduces the risk of data entry errors or sending the invoices back to vendor for missing mandatory information.

Invoicing addresses are only to be used for commercial invoices.
Account statements and reminders are to be sent to Fortum Accounts Payable team purchase.invoices(at)fortum.com. All attachments need to be sent with the invoice. Invoice sending via paper or email-pdf must be separately agreed with Fortum.

To ensure Your invoice can be processed and is not send back for extra clarifications, 
following information is mandatory on all invoices:

  • Invoice must be addressed to correct Fortum business unit
    Please note same legal company can have several business units, but invoice address must be used correctly based on buying business unit.
  • Purchase order number must be added to “Order number” field. 
    Order number starts with MX, PX or ML
  • Contract number or agreed reference must be in “Contract number” field.
  • Fortum contact person name, the requisitioner, must be in “Buyer’s reference” field.
    Only if purchase was done by Fortum representative, can the invoice be stated to belong for Fortum.
  • E-Invoice data must follow the country specific compliance and tax legislation of corresponding EU country.
  • For EU purchases VAT compliance reverse charge and both parties VAT registration codes must be stated.
  • For domestic purchases must be stated why the invoice is not subject to VAT.
  • As regards to work performed in Sweden, mandatory to provide the foreign supplier’s/company’s tax identification number (F-tax by the Swedish Tax Agency). If no number is provided, 30% preliminary tax on the invoiced amount related to the work is withheld. More information is found from here here - External link.
  • Changes to the registered or previously used bank account details must be informed to Fortum in advance by email to supplierregister(at)fortum.com. Fortum does not change bank details based on changes informed through the invoice picture alone, and invoices with unmatching bank account details will be returned. Use of alternative payee or factoring company must be separately agreed and aligned to all invoices for all Fortum companies and business units.

To ensure high quality, we would like to receive structured e-invoices based on the European EN 16931 standard. Fortum companies registered as Peppol e-invoice receivers can be found in the Peppol directory Peppol directory - External link.
