France | E-invoicing

Ready for France's e-invoicing mandate with Zapfloor and Billit

From September 2026, e-invoicing becomes mandatory for businesses operating in France. Zapfloor is compliant today, through our integration with Billit — so your invoicing keeps running smoothly, whatever the deadline.

What is France's e-invoicing mandate?

France is rolling out mandatory business-to-business e-invoicing and e-reporting, overseen by the French tax authority (DGFiP). Invoices will no longer be exchanged as PDFs or paper — they'll be issued in a structured format and routed through a certified Approved Platform (formerly known as a PDP) to the national portal, the PPF.The goal: real-time visibility for tax authorities, less manual invoice admin, and fewer errors for businesses.

What counts as compliant?

  • Invoices issued in a structured e-invoice format:
    Factur-X, UBL, or CII.

  • Sent and received via a government-certified Approved Platform (Plateforme Agréée), not directly between businesses.

  • Relevant transaction data (including B2C and cross-border) reported to the DGFiP through e-reporting.
