- France and Germany will launch updated hybrid e-invoicing standards (Factur-X 1.0.8 and ZUGFeRD 2.4) on January 15, 2026.
- The update improves support for complex invoice structures, aligns with French and EU frameworks, and clarifies tax rounding rules.
- Businesses should ensure their invoicing systems support the new formats and review their handling of bundled products and tax calculations.
- The changes are evolutionary, not radical, and aim to harmonize e-invoicing in preparation for broader EU digital reporting requirements.
