who-is-scope

Who’s in Scope?

All e-invoices must be issued in one of the following structured formats:

Accepted Invoice Formats 
E-Invoices

How Will E-Invoices Be Exchanged? 

France uses a 5-Corner Model meaning every invoice must pass through certified, traceable channels. 

The Invoice Flow: 
Your system (ERP, accounting, etc.) 
Your certified PDP (Partner Dematerialization Platform) 
Buyer’s PDP 
Buyer’s system 
DGFiP (Tax Authority) via the PPF (Public Invoicing Portal)

You can no longer email PDFs or send paper invoices everything must flow through this infrastructure.
