Chris Girardin 2020 Elster database Schemas for VAT

[chrisgirardin]

Hi:

first, apologies as i do not speak German. We are in the process of linking with Elster for VAT purposes. I am trying to find the 2020 XML Schemas so we can map our software. I have searched the Elster documentation site and can find the 2020 VAT forms but not the 2020 schemas. Can someone please tell me where I find them?

I think it can be found in the section Schnittstellenbeschreibungen here: https://www.elster.de/elsterweb/infoseite/entwickler . You must be registered there.

Thanks. I have access to that link. I am trying to find the XML Schemas for these reports for 2020 at this link and they do not seem to be there.
