E-invoicing and e-reporting

Plan your compliance strategy with confidence

 

Your challenges

Since January 1st, 2020, e-invoicing has been mandatory for transactions with the public sector. The first phase of its broader implementation, originally scheduled for July 1, 2024, has been postponed to September 1, 2026 (learn more). This extended timeline gives companies more flexibility to successfully complete their digital transformation projects, ensuring all necessary conditions are met for an optimal launch.

While the reform primarily aims to improve transparency in France’s economic activity and combat VAT fraud, it also presents a strategic opportunity for businesses to:

  • Enhance their competitiveness by reducing processing costs and payment delays;
  • Explore new cash flow management solutions: early payments, refinancing, forecasting, dynamic discounting, and more;
  • Secure their VAT reporting through standardized data exchange, structured information, and new processes aligned with the tax authorities.
