- Significant Changes Announced: In Q4 2024, the DGFiP (French tax authority) introduced major modifications to France’s e-invoicing and e-reporting mandates, complicating the existing framework involving multiple stakeholders and processes.
- Shift to Private Providers: A key announcement in October 2024 revealed the removal of the central platform (PPF) for invoice processing, requiring businesses to exclusively use private certified providers (PDPs) for invoice exchange and tax data submission.
- Phased Implementation Timeline: The updated e-invoicing and e-reporting mandates will be implemented in phases, with partial enforcement expected by the end of 2026 and full enforcement by the end of 2027, necessitating businesses to adapt quickly to evolving PDP specifications in the coming month
