- The French tax authority (DGFiP) updated its E-Invoicing mandate for Platform Dematerialisation Partners (PDPs) in November 2024.
- A meeting was held in Paris with provisionally accredited and candidate PDPs.
- The public invoicing portal (PPF) will no longer serve as a free exchange platform for domestic B2B electronic invoices.
- The Y model remains in effect, requiring companies to send e-invoices to customers and report transactions to the DGFiP via the PPF using a PDP.
- The PPF will now only provide a recipient directory and data concentration services, as the free e-invoice exchange service has been discontinued due to delays.
- The DGFiP reported receiving 99 PDP applications: 72 provisionally accredited, 18 rejected, and 9 under review.
- A proposed schedule for PDPs includes:
- October to December 2025: Definitive registration of provisionally registered PDPs after interoperability tests with the PPF.
- January 2026: PDPs to begin testing e-reporting functionalities of the PPF.
- September 2026: All companies must be able to accept e-invoicing.
