Intelligent E-Invoicing Solution for France's PPF/PDP Mandate
France's mandatory B2B e-invoicing via the PPF/PDP model launches September 2026 for large and mid-size enterprises. All invoices must be routed through a certified Plateforme de Dématérialisation Partenaire (PDP) or the public Portail Public de Facturation. InvoStaq's AI engine audits every invoice inside your ERP — zero errors, zero fines.
Your AI Shield for French E-Invoicing Compliance
France is rolling out mandatory B2B e-invoicing and e-reporting through a unique PPF/PDP architecture. The Portail Public de Facturation (PPF) serves as the state platform, while certified Plateformes de Dématérialisation Partenaires (PDPs) act as private intermediaries. Large and mid-size companies must comply from September 2026, with small businesses following in September 2027. Factur-X (the Franco-German hybrid standard combining PDF and XML) is one of three accepted formats alongside UBL and CII. France's B2G e-invoicing has been mandatory since 2020 via the Chorus Pro platform.

Mandate Status by Business Sector
Current compliance requirements across B2B, B2G, and B2C transactions.
B2B (Business-to-Business)
Mandatory B2B e-invoicing begins September 1, 2026 for large enterprises (CA ≥ €5B) and mid-size companies (ETI). Small and micro enterprises must comply by September 1, 2027. All businesses must be able to receive e-invoices from September 2026. Invoices must be routed through a certified PDP or the PPF in Factur-X, UBL, or CII format.
B2G (Business-to-Government)
B2G e-invoicing has been mandatory since January 1, 2020 for all suppliers to public entities via the Chorus Pro platform. This completed a phased rollout that began in 2017 with large enterprises. All invoices to the French state must transit through Chorus Pro.
B2C (Business-to-Consumer)
B2C transactions are not subject to e-invoicing obligations but fall under e-reporting requirements. Businesses must report B2C transaction data to the tax authority (DGFiP) via their PDP or the PPF.

The Décret n° 2024-266 of 25 March 2024 details the technical and operational requirements. The Direction Générale des Finances Publiques (DGFiP) oversees the PPF and certifies PDPs. B2G e-invoicing is governed by the Code de la Commande Publique and Ordonnance n° 2014-697.
