Export your data

How to export invoices, receipts and master data from Chingvoice – for archiving, your tax advisor or switching providers.

Updated 20 October 2026

Your data belongs to you. You can export it from Chingvoice at any time.

Individual documents

  • Download invoices and quotes as PDF from the detail view, invoices also as an e-invoice via XRechnung (XML) and (from Start) as a ZUGFeRD PDF.
  • Open or download receipts from the respective expense.

Full export

  1. Open Settings → Account & data.
  2. Under Backup, click Export (JSON).
  3. Chingvoice downloads a JSON file with all your data (companies, customers, products, documents, expenses incl. receipt files and bank transactions). Use Import (JSON) to restore such a backup.

Invoice and expense lists as CSV (for Excel/Numbers) are under Reports & tax → Export & accountant.

To hand data to your tax advisor, the DATEV export (from Start) is also a good choice.

Mind retention obligations

Even if you stop using Chingvoice, statutory retention periods still apply – generally eight years for invoices and other accounting vouchers in Germany. Store your export safely before deleting your account.

Delete your account

To delete your account, export your data first. Then use Delete account under Settings → Account & data → Danger zone. If you have questions, write to support@chingvoice.com.
