- From September 2026, e-invoicing and e-reporting become mandatory for VAT-registered businesses in France, with large and intermediate companies starting first; small businesses follow in 2027.
- E-invoicing applies to all B2B transactions between VAT-taxable businesses established in France, except for certain exempt sectors (e.g., medical, education, finance).
- E-reporting covers transactions not subject to e-invoicing, including B2C and international B2B transactions, with specific data reporting requirements and timelines based on VAT regime.
- Foreign businesses without a fixed establishment in France are exempt from e-invoicing but may be required to comply with e-reporting for taxable transactions in France.
