France is one of the first European countries that decided to implement e-invoicing obligations in business to government (B2G) relations. Since 1st of January 2020, it has been mandatory for the public sector (buyer side) to be able to receive and process e-invoices, as well as for e-invoices to be issued on the supplier side. It is also worth noting that this obligation applies to French entities and does not extend to international transactions. To enable the implementation of this solution, the government has made available a free portal called Chorus Pro, which is PEPPOL-enabled.
