Electronic invoices
VÍS accepts invoices electronically as XML messages through a message broker. It is possible to submit an invoice through an electronic portal or via dedicated invoicing systems.
It is important that certain information is included in XML messages so that invoices can be processed quickly.
All invoices must comply with the TS-236 standard from the Icelandic Standards Authority, along with the TS-236 addendum issued by Icepro in January 2023.
Invoices sent to VÍS via invoicing systems
- Buyer: The claimant (owner of the damaged property).

- Receiver: VÍS tryggingar.
- EndpointID / Electronic address of the claimant: VÍS Insurance ID number (kennitala): 670112-0470.
- BuyerReference: Claim number.
- For those who have not updated to TS-236, the claim number may be entered in the “Booking information” field.
- A link to the PDF version of the invoice from the invoicing system must be included with the electronic invoice.
Invoices sent to VÍS via the electronic portal
- Use the VÍS electronic portal.
- All fields marked with a star must be filled in.
- An invoice should not be sent from an invoicing system simultaneously by regular mail or email. However, a PDF version of the invoice must be uploaded as an attachment when registering through the portal.
Note that claim numbers can take three different formats depending on the type of claim:
- Claim number consisting only of digits. Example: 123456.
- Claim number with the letter “s” in front. Example: s12345.
- Claim number with digits separated by a hyphen. Example: 123456-12345.
