Building on the EU&#8217;s <\/span><b>ViDA (VAT in the Digital Age)<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> initiative, the French government has designed an ecosystem aimed at full transparency of commercial transactions and a systematic fight against VAT fraud. Unlike other European models, however, the French approach was designed to be business-friendly, leaving companies free to choose how they transmit their data, provided the integrity and traceability requirements are met.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What is the &#8220;Y model&#8221; in French e-invoicing?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The true distinctiveness of the French reform lies in its choice of the <\/span><b>Y model<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. For anyone used to the Italian model (the <\/span><b>V model<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">), or familiar with the Polish model launched last February, the change is significant. In the Italian system, the Interchange System (SdI) acts as a centralised &#8220;postman&#8221;: every invoice must pass through the tax authority before reaching the customer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The French <\/span><b>Y model<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, by contrast, introduces<\/span><b> PAs (Plateforme Agr\u00e9\u00e9es)<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Under this model, companies can exchange invoices directly through their own accredited private platforms. The tax authority is no longer a mandatory step for the full document; it receives only the necessary tax data from the PAs (e-reporting). This allows businesses to keep exchanging documents enriched with complex logistical and commercial information (as in traditional EDI flows), without the constraints of a rigid public portal.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>The pillars of the system: PPF, PA and the role of the Annuaire<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To navigate the French market correctly, it&#8217;s essential to distinguish the roles of the parties involved:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>PPF (Portail Public de Facturation):<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> the state hub. Although originally intended as a universal platform, its main role today is managing the <\/span><b>Annuaire<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the central business register. Every French company is listed in the Annuaire with its own SIREN\/SIRET number, indicating which platform (PA) it has chosen to receive invoices.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>PA (Plateforme Agr\u00e9\u00e9es):<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> the private platforms, such as the one operated by Intesa, that have obtained government accreditation. Only a PA can transmit invoices directly to another PA, handle e-reporting and guarantee the legal validity of documents without going through the public portal.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>OD (Op\u00e9rateur de D\u00e9mat\u00e9rialisation):<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> providers offering invoicing software who, not being accredited as a PA, must connect to the PPF and to a third-party PA to send documents legally.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>Timeline and deadlines: when does the obligation start?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Roll-out will follow a precise timeline to allow the whole business community to adapt:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>September 2026:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> <\/span><b>receiving<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> obligation for all VAT-liable businesses. <\/span><b>Issuing<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> obligation for large companies and mid-caps.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>September 2027:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> <\/span><b>Issuing<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> obligation extended to SMEs and micro-businesses.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>Beyond B2B invoices: the importance of e-reporting<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not all transactions can be handled with a standard French B2B e-invoice: think of sales to private consumers (<\/span><b>B2C<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">) or exchanges with <\/span><b>international<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> partners.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is why the French system introduces the <\/span><b>e-reporting<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> obligation, a digital log that periodically reports turnover and VAT on these &#8220;external&#8221; operations to the tax authority. In addition, every invoice must follow a traceable &#8220;life cycle&#8221; through mandatory statuses (such as <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">D\u00e9pos\u00e9e, Rejet\u00e9e, Refus\u00e9e<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Encaiss\u00e9e<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). This granularity allows constant cash-flow monitoring and a more accurate pre-filling of VAT returns.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To be compliant, businesses will need to collect and transmit data on three types of flows through e-reporting:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>B2C transactions (Business to Consumer):<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> covers all sales to private individuals (e.g. retail, e-commerce). Since there&#8217;s no obligation to issue an e-invoice to a final consumer, the business must transmit aggregated data on these sales (often drawn from cash registers or e-commerce systems).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>International B2B transactions (import\/export):<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> when a French company sells to a foreign customer (EU or non-EU) or buys from a foreign supplier, it cannot force the counterparty to use the French system. In this case, the resident company must send the tax authority data on these operations so it can monitor intra-EU VAT and imports.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Payment data (Statut de Paiement):<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> this is perhaps the most impactful new feature. For services where VAT is due on a cash basis, businesses must transmit data on payments received. This flow allows the DGFiP to pre-fill VAT returns in almost real time.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><b>Accepted formats: Factur-X, UBL and CII<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In line with the European trend towards formats compatible with the international EN 16931 standard, the French system has specified three structured formats businesses can use:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Factur-X:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> a hybrid format (human-readable PDF plus structured XML).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>UBL (Universal Business Language).<\/b><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>CII (Cross Industry Invoice).<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Choosing a <\/span><b>PA<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> such as Intesa lets businesses overcome the complexity of adapting to these formats: files can be exchanged in whatever technical format best suits internal processes, while Intesa&#8217;s conversion capabilities handle the transformation into the formats required by the DGFiP.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Why choose Intesa as your partner for France<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Since 6 August 2026, Intesa (In.Te.S.A.
