France's 2026 e-invoicing mandate: devs must prepare for €50 penalties
Starting September 1, 2026, all VAT-subject businesses in France must receive electronic invoices via the new national system, with penalties rising to €50 per invoice. Issuance is phased by company size, with large firms starting in 2026 and SMEs in 2027. Developers must integrate support for UBL 2.1, CII, or Factur-X formats to avoid fines.
