Automating your invoicing on mybox is no longer just a “time-saver”-in 2026, it is a legal necessity for the Romanian market. Since January 1, 2026, the RO e-Factura system has become mandatory for all B2C (Business-to-Consumer) transactions, in addition to the existing B2B requirements.
To stay compliant, your invoices must be transmitted to the ANAF SPV within 5 working days. On a busy store, manual entry is impossible; you need a “set and forget” integration.

Top Invoicing Solutions for Romania (2026)
For a store hosted on mybox, you should choose a plugin that communicates directly with the most popular Romanian accounting platforms.
1. SmartBill for WooCommerce
SmartBill is the most used invoicing software in Romania. Their official plugin is the “gold standard” for 2026.
- The e-Factura Advantage: It automatically transmits the XML to ANAF the moment the payment is confirmed.
- Pro Tip: In the 2026 version, SmartBill handles B2C identification automatically, using a generic code if the customer doesn’t provide a CNP.
2. FGO for WooCommerce
FGO is a powerful, low-cost alternative that integrates deeply with SAGA (the accounting software used by most Romanian accountants).
- Automatic Sync: It polls your WooCommerce orders and generates invoices in the background. It then sends them to the SPV and archives the “Recipisă” (receipt) from ANAF directly in your FGO account.
3. WooCommerce PDF Invoices & Packing Slips (with Romanian Add-on)
If you prefer to generate PDFs directly on your mybox server without an external accounting service:
- Requirement: You must add the “Facturare WooCommerce” plugin by George Ciobanu to add fields like CUI/CNP and IBAN to your checkout page.
- Warning: While this generates beautiful PDFs, it does not automatically send them to RO e-Factura. You would still need a separate bridge to stay legal.
How to Set Up Automatic Invoicing Step-by-Step
Step 1: Add the Legal Fields
Romanian law requires specific data (CUI for companies, Address, etc.).
- Install a plugin like Flexible Checkout Fields or the local Facturare WooCommerce.
- Add a toggle for “Persoană Fizică / Juridică.”
- Make the CUI/CIF field mandatory for companies.
Step 2: Connect to your Accounting Service
- Generate an API Key from your SmartBill or FGO dashboard.
- Enter this key into the plugin settings on your WordPress site.
- Map your VAT rates (e.g., 21% standard, 11% or 7% reduced for specific goods).
Step 3: Define the “Trigger”
Choose when the invoice is created:
- Recommended: “When order status changes to Processing or Completed.” This ensures you only issue an invoice for paid orders.
