Finance Law No. 2019-1479, published on 28th December, announced the French government’s intention to make business-to-business e-invoicing compulsory, pending authorization by the EU. The launch of the e-invoicing plan is scheduled for 1st January 2023 at the earliest, or 1st January 2025 at the latest. This leaves a 2-year margin for the date of implementation.
Article 153 of the finance law provides that e-invoicing between private entities will be rolled out gradually based on business size and sector.
