- France will introduce a two-year grace period (September 1, 2026–August 31, 2027) for mandatory B2B e-invoicing and e-reporting.
- The grace period applies only to businesses demonstrating good faith in compliance, not to all taxable persons.
- During the grace period, there will be a moratorium on penalties for technical non-compliance, and administrative tolerance will be exercised.
- The grace period aims to prevent systemic issues, such as rejected invoices and payment disruptions, and ensure business continuity.
- The grace period does not delay the mandatory implementation date but provides flexibility to support a smoother transition.
