How does it work?

The DGFIP has adopted a scheme that allows companies to choose the dematerialization platform of their choice and to work with their current service providers: Dematerialization Operators (DO) and/or Partner Dematerialization Platform (PDP), or directly with the Public Billing Portal (PPF).

Weproc is positioned as a Dematerialization Operator: whatever the situation, we will be there to support you in managing your electronic invoices.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Any questions ? We got the answers

What is the Factur-x?

FacturX is an electronic invoice format developed jointly by France and Germany in 2017 to meet the requirements of the European standard EN16931, established by the European Commission for Standardization (CEN). This format was designed by the National Forum for Electronic Invoicing and Electronic Procurement (FNFEMPE) in France and its German counterpart, FeRD.

It is important to note that a simple PDF is not considered an electronic invoice. FacturX is a hybrid format that combines the two most commonly used invoice formats: XML and PDF. This hybrid format consists of a PDF/A3 file, which includes a humanreadable PDF invoice and an XML structured data file containing the invoice details. The structured part allows the invoice to be automatically integrated into management systems, such as ERP or accounting software.

What are the advantages of the Factur-x format?

Using the FacturX format has several advantages for companies. First of all, it allows for automated invoice processing, thus reducing the risk of errors and disputes. In addition, it reduces administrative costs related to invoice management, secures information and improves business relations between suppliers and billers. Thanks to its compatibility with the European standard EN16931, this format also facilitates international exchanges.

Finally, the Facturx format is both humanreadable (PDF/A3 format) and machinereadable (XML format), making it easier to exchange, process and archive electronic invoices.

When will electronic invoicing become mandatory in France?

The receipt of electronic invoices will be mandatory for all companies in July 2024, regardless of their size.

At the same time, the issue of electronic invoices will become mandatory :

from July 1, 2024 for large companies ,

from January 1, 2025 for mediumsized companies,

and from January 1, 2026 for SMEs and sole proprietorships.
