Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about the e-invoice.be MCP server.

What is MCP?

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard by Anthropic that lets AI assistants connect to external tools and data sources. Think of it as USB-C for AI: one standard connection for any AI tool. It allows Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other AI clients to securely access your e-invoicing data.

Which AI tools are supported?

Any MCP-compatible client works with the e-invoice.be MCP server. This includes Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code with GitHub Copilot, Windsurf, ChatGPT, and more. New clients are being added regularly as the MCP ecosystem grows.

Can the MCP server modify my data?

No. All 12 tools are read-only. The MCP server can only query and retrieve information. It cannot create, modify, or delete invoices, credit notes, or any other data in your account.

Do I need an API key?

Yes. All tools require a valid API key from a verified e-invoice.be account. Account creation is free and instant, but full access requires KYC verification (24-48 hours via wire transfer).

Is the MCP server free?

Yes. The MCP server is included with every e-invoice.be account at no extra cost. You can start using it as soon as you have an API key.

What about rate limits?

Standard API rate limits apply. Peppol lookups are cached for 15 minutes to ensure fast responses.

Can I also send invoices through the MCP server?

No. The MCP server is read-only. To send e-invoices, use the e-invoice.be Peppol CLI. It lets you create, validate, and send invoices directly from your terminal.

Do I need a verified account?

Yes. All MCP tools require an API key from a KYC-verified e-invoice.be account. Sign up for free at app.e-invoice.be. Verification takes 24-48 hours via wire transfer. This ensures every user on the platform is a legitimate business.
