- France will abolish its simplified VAT regime from 1 January 2027.
- Businesses currently on the simplified regime will be moved automatically to the standard VAT regime; no application or filing is required.
- From 2027, VAT returns will be filed quarterly if turnover (including taxable acquisitions) does not exceed EUR 1,000,000 in the previous year or EUR 1,100,000 in the current year.
- Businesses above those thresholds must file monthly VAT returns; those eligible for quarterly filing may opt for monthly filing by request.
- The simplified VAT regime for farmers is not affected.
