Context

Moving to e-invoicing is no longer an option for businesses – it’s an obligation. Mandatory e-invoicing legislation is on the rise globally, driving the transition from paper or PDF invoices to structured e-invoicing. France is one of the next countries in line, as e-invoicing will become mandatory for all domestic B2B transactions between 2026 & 2027, depending on company size. Plus, as a company, you must use a registered private provider (PDP) to comply with the mandate and exchange data with the tax authority platform.
