What is an EAN number?

In short

An EAN number (GLN) is the electronic address Danish public institutions receive e-invoices on. Invoices to the state, regions and municipalities must be sent electronically to the customer's EAN number.

In practice

Selling to the public sector requires invoicing software that supports e-invoicing (OIOUBL/Nemhandel) — Numina's invoicing does.
