France’s 2026 E-Invoicing Launch Delayed After Finance Bill Fails Final Approval

  • France’s mandatory e-invoicing and e-reporting regime planned for September 1, 2026, is now uncertain due to the 2026 Finance Bill not passing.
  • Article 28, which updates the e-invoicing framework, was approved but is not legally in force since the overall bill failed.
  • A temporary finance bill extends the 2025 budget into 2026, with a compromise expected by mid-February.
  • Key Article 28 provisions now on hold include renaming PDPs as Approved Platforms (PAs), making PAs default for B2B e-invoicing, clarifying e-reporting scope, introducing softer penalties, and enforcing stricter platform switching rules.
