- France is considering a two-year grace period for B2B e-invoicing and e-reporting requirements, suspending fines for companies acting in good faith from September 2026 to August 2028.
- The phased rollout begins on 1 September 2026 and aims for full coverage by 1 September 2027.
- The grace period includes a moratorium on sanctions, guarantees VAT deduction rights, and promises enhanced government support and dialogue.
- The amendment is still a proposal and may be revised or rejected before becoming law.
- An electronic invoicing directory was launched in September 2025 to help businesses prepare for the new requirements.
