As part of its electronic invoicing reform, the French government has adopted a model based on specialized, state-approved platforms. These platforms have successfully met regulatory requirements as well as technical and interoperability testing, and they act as mandatory intermediaries for the exchange of invoices between businesses and for the transmission of invoicing data to the tax authorities.
To support businesses, particularly micro-enterprises, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), and self-employed professionals, the French General Directorate of Public Finances (DGFiP) has published an official list of approved platforms on its website, impots.gouv.fr. In addition, a dedicated logo has been introduced to clearly identify authorized providers and improve transparency among the available solutions.
