In this article, you’ll find the major impacts you need to take into account to prepare your company’s ecosystem and get through the electronic invoicing reform<\/strong> with peace of mind.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.0″ custom_padding=”||5%||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n Dans la continuit\u00e9 de la loi de modernisation de l\u2019\u00e9conomie du 04 ao\u00fbt 2008, la r\u00e9forme de la facture \u00e9lectronique<\/strong> a introduit l\u2019obligation d\u2019\u00e9changer les flux de facturation<\/strong> par voie \u00e9lectronique. The Direction G\u00e9n\u00e9rale des Finances Publiques (DGFIP<\/a><\/strong>) and the Agence pour l’Informatique Financi\u00e8re de l’Etat (AIFE<\/a><\/strong>) are responsible for implementing the new billing system.<\/p>\n The vast majority of French companies are sole traders (3.8 million in 2021) or very small businesses (1.3 million in 2021), and the French government estimates that between 2 and 2.5 billion invoices<\/strong> are circulated via B2B each year in France.

Or, le cadre impos\u00e9 par la r\u00e9forme vient apporter une nouvelle norme et bouleverser les pratiques de facturation<\/strong> de toutes les entreprises, \u00e0 court et moyen terme.<\/p>\n Much more than the edition of a document in an image format, the electronic invoice<\/strong> is defined as a paperless invoice, of which all the stages, from its creation to its integration, are done in a dematerialized way. It concerns all transactions for the purchase\/sale of goods and services<\/strong> between companies established in France and subject to VAT. Under the new legislation, paper invoices will no longer be issued in the same way as PDF invoices.<\/p>\n For an invoice to be considered compliant, the following three electronic formats, governed by European standard EN16931 (defining the expected semantic data model), will now be permitted:<\/p>\n On the other hand, the French government is introducing e-Reporting<\/strong>, which enables the tax authorities to be sent a statement of all purchase\/sale transactions that do not fall within the scope of e-invoicing<\/strong>.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.sqorus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/E-reporting.png” alt=”E-reporting” title_text=”E-reporting” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” module_alignment=”center” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.2″ custom_padding=”||5%||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n In addition to the obligations related to the format, new information has been made mandatory. This is the case, for example, with statuses linked to the invoice life cycle<\/strong> (payment, receipt, validation, etc.) and data such as the customer’s Siren number.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.2″ custom_padding=”||5%||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n The directory is a register of identification data of companies established in France. It is set up within the framework of the reform and will be managed by the AIFE. It is designed to facilitate electronic invoicing exchanges<\/strong> between companies, and will enable VAT taxable persons to be identified.<\/p>\n Several categories of information will be listed in this register:<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.23.1″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.23.1″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n Because of the mandatory nature of the reform, the State has modeled future electronic invoicing flows<\/strong> between buyers and suppliers under a “Y-scheme”.

In addition to providing the tax authorities with a new tool to reduce VAT fraud, this is a real opportunity for companies of all sizes to harmonize and modernize their invoicing practices.<\/p>\n This will improve both buyer-supplier relations and productivity, by optimizing working capital requirements, drastically reducing costs and processing times throughout the invoice life cycle<\/strong>, and improving competitiveness by simplifying invoicing processes, making them more reliable<\/strong>, and lightening the administrative burden of tax declarations.<\/p>\n SQORUS, a Council <\/strong>specialized in the digital transformation of HR, Finance and IT functions<\/strong>, can help you with your e-invoicing issues<\/strong>.
