Electronic invoicing 2026: get ready for the regulatory obligation
From September 2026, electronic invoicing will be compulsory in France for B2B exchanges between G.C. (Grands Comptes) and E.T.I. (Entreprises de Taille Intermédiaire) companies. Since January 1, 2020, companies have been obliged to send their invoices to the public sector electronically via the Chorus Pro portal. This obligation will soon apply to all B2B transactions between French companies subject to VAT.
From September 1, 2026, all companies will be obliged to accept electronic invoices.
Then, between 2026 and 2027, the obligation to issue invoices in electronic format will be phased in, depending on company size:
From September 2026 for large and mid-sized companies;
- From September 2027 for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and micro-businesses.
- This law is based on 4 main objectives: boosting business competitiveness, combating VAT fraud, managing business activity more effectively, and facilitating VAT returns through pre-filling.

Etre en conformité avec les nouvelles obligations légales
To comply with the new legal obligations, companies will need to use a platform to send and receive invoices and transmit data to the tax authorities: this platform can be either a certified partner dematerialization platform (PDP (Plateforme de Dématérialisation Partenaire)), or the public invoicing portal (PPF). To prepare for the impact of these new regulations on your organization, you need to adopt a proactive approach and anticipate the changes ahead, as this is a major change affecting information systems, processes and company organization.
