E. sąskaitos Prancūzijoje 2026: Factur-X, Chorus Pro ir B2B įpareigojimas

Yes, in a phased rollout. Large enterprises (more than 5,000 employees or revenue above €1.5 billion) must send and receive structured e-invoices from September 2026. Mid-size companies (250–5,000 employees or €50M–€1.5B revenue) follow in September 2027. All remaining businesses must comply by September 2028. B2G via Chorus Pro has been mandatory since 2020.

France accepts three structured formats: Factur-X (the recommended hybrid PDF+XML format), UBL 2.1, and CII (UN/CEFACT Cross Industry Invoice). All three must conform to EN 16931 and be transmitted through an accredited PDP (Plateforme de Dématérialisation Partenaire) or the public PPF (Portail Public de Facturation). Factur-X is preferred because it includes a human-readable PDF and is already widely deployed in France and Germany.

Chorus Pro is the French government portal for B2G e-invoicing — all invoices to public-sector buyers (ministries, local authorities, hospitals) must go through it. For B2B, Chorus Pro is being extended as the PPF (public platform), but businesses may instead choose an accredited PDP to transmit invoices. Both paths support Factur-X, UBL and CII.

A PDP (Plateforme de Dématérialisation Partenaire) is an accredited e-invoicing operator certified by the French tax authority (DGFiP). From 2026, B2B invoices must be transmitted via a PDP or the public PPF — you cannot exchange structured e-invoices directly between ERPs. Most major accounting software providers (Sage, Cegid, SAP, Oracle) are becoming PDPs. aiDoks generates and validates Factur-X for preparation; for actual transmission you connect your PDP.

In addition to e-invoicing (for B2B domestic transactions), France requires e-reporting of international B2B transactions and B2C transactions to the DGFiP. These transactions are not e-invoiced through the PDP/PPF but must be reported in near real-time. The objective is to close the French VAT gap, estimated at €15 billion annually.

aiDoks validates Factur-X / ZUGFeRD PDFs against all five official profiles (MINIMUM, BASIC-WL, BASIC, EN 16931, EXTENDED) and the underlying EN 16931 rules. Use the validator to check any Factur-X invoice before sending it to Chorus Pro or your PDP. The generator (in development) will produce Factur-X PDF output from the guided form.
