Impact of Changes to French e-Invoicing Mandate on Businesses: Transition to Private PDPs Needed

  • French tax administration discontinuing free state-operated invoice exchange service
  • Pressure on taxpayers and software vendors to select certified ‘PDP’
  • France adopted unique ‘Y model’ for e-invoicing mandate
  • Division of labor between PDPs and PPF in original design
  • Complexity in technical specifications causing strain on budgets and timelines
  • PPF’s scope changing to provide directory services only, not PDP services
  • French businesses and software vendors now need to secure private PDP services
  • E-invoicing mandate applies to largest businesses initially, but all companies will need PDP-enabled accounting software
