France updates the Factur-X standard for the 2026 e-invoicing mandate alongside harmonization with German e-invoicing standards.

France and Germany released updated e-invoicing formats—Factur-X 1.07.3 and ZUGFeRD 2.3.3—on May 7, 2025, as part of their ongoing harmonization efforts, with the changes taking effect from May 15, 2025. Factur-X 1.07.3 includes key updates such as refreshed EN16931 code lists, VATEX codes for exemptions, and required document codes to support France’s 2026 B2B e-invoicing mandate.
