Switching to electronic invoicing: more than an obligation, real opportunities

Electronic invoicing, although already in use, is gradually becoming mandatory for all French companies.

Since January 1, 2021, invoices for the public sector must be electronic. From September 1, 2026, this obligation will extend to large companies and ETIs, then to all companies, including SMEs and micro-enterprises, by September 1, 2027. The aim of this reform is to optimize costs, reduce manual tasks and improve return on investment (ROI). Invoices will have to transit via certified platforms, offering better traceability and transaction security. Companies will also have to issue e-reports for transactions not covered by electronic invoicing. This transition to digitalization is seen as a lever for automating and optimizing internal processes, while facilitating VAT controls.
