What actually changes

Accredited platform required

All B2B invoices between French VAT-registered businesses must transit through a state-accredited platform (Plateforme Agréée, formerly PDP), in a structured format (Factur-X, UBL or CII).

4 new mandatory fields

The customer's SIREN number, the operation category (sale, service, or both), the option to pay VAT on debits where applicable, and the delivery address when it differs from the billing address.

E-reporting to the tax authority

Transaction and payment data must be reported to the tax authority through an approved platform according to the 2026–2027 timetable. Junyr's reporting path is still in development.

Junyr integration: controlled pilot

Junyr has a Factur-X engine, a B2Brouter adapter and invoice parsing, assignment and matching primitives. The current-contract, automatic-reception, route-evidence, outbound-lifecycle and e-reporting work needed for readiness remains in development.

  • Factur-X generation and a B2Brouter adapter built for a controlled pilot
  • Manual supplier-invoice pull, parsing and project-assignment primitives built
  • The 4 new invoice mentions identified; automatic enforcement remains in development
  • Continuous numbering and pre-send validation primitives built

Automatic complete reception, directory-route evidence, current-contract transmission, transaction/payment e-reporting and bank-feed synchronization remain in development.

Frequently asked questions

Who is affected by e-invoicing on 1 September 2026?+

Every affected business established in France, whatever its size, must be able to receive an electronic invoice from 1 September 2026. Large companies and mid-caps (ETI) must also issue electronically and perform transaction/payment e-reporting from that date; SMEs and micro-enterprises do so from 1 September 2027.

What is an accredited platform (Plateforme Agréée)?+

An approved platform (formerly PDP) is a state-registered operator for structured B2B electronic invoices and reporting. B2Brouter is an approved platform; Junyr's embedded adapter is a controlled pilot, and configuring it does not by itself prove directory activation or readiness.

What are the new mandatory fields?+

Four invoice mentions apply from 1 September 2026: the customer's SIREN number, the operation category (sale, service, or both), the option to pay VAT on debits where applicable, and the delivery address when it differs from the billing address. Junyr's automatic completion and legal enforcement of them remain in development.

What is Junyr's integration status?+

It is in development as a controlled pilot. Existing Factur-X, B2Brouter, parsing, assignment and matching primitives are real, but they do not yet establish automatic reception, current-contract transmission, reporting or regulatory readiness.

Do I need to change my invoicing software?+

Software choice alone does not establish compliance: each business must use an approved platform and verify its directory and receiving-route activation. Junyr combines quotes, invoices, CRM and cash tracking, while its regulated exchange integration remains in development.
