France Enacts 2026 Finance Bill with Key E-Invoicing Mandate Amendments and Stricter Penalties

  • France adopted the 2026 Finance Bill, enacting key amendments to the B2B e-invoicing and e-reporting mandate.
  • The law establishes a central invoice routing directory via the Public Invoicing Portal and updates platform terminology to Plateforme Agréée (PA).
  • Payment reporting requirements are streamlined, now limited to transactions where VAT is payable upon collection.
  • Penalties for non-compliance are increased, with higher fines for non-compliant e-invoices and e-reporting, and a three-month grace period for businesses to comply.
  • The amendments aim to simplify onboarding and provide greater legal certainty for all stakeholders in France’s digital tax transformation.
