- France’s 2026 Finance Law introduces clearer penalties for non-compliance with new e-invoicing and e-reporting rules starting September 2026.
- Fines include €50 per non-compliant invoice, escalating penalties for failing to receive e-invoices via approved platforms, and €500 per missing e-reporting transmission (capped at €15,000 annually).
- Businesses get a “first offence tolerance” if errors are corrected promptly and it’s their first infringement in four years.
- The new regime aims to ensure all businesses use approved digital platforms and comply with real-time VAT monitoring.
