Short answer: an Approved Platform (PA, formerly PDP) is an operator registered with the French tax authority (DGFiP), the only type of provider authorised to transmit and receive electronic invoices between French companies under the reform. As of August 27, 2026, the official list published on impots.gouv.fr counts 148 platforms that have passed the interoperability tests (plus 18 awaiting tests).
⏱️ The Essentials in 2 Minutes
- The reception obligation applies to every company from September 1, 2026; issuance follows for SMBs on September 1, 2027 — see the detailed 2026-2027 compliance timeline.
- A vendor’s status can be checked in 30 seconds on the official DGFiP list — not on marketing pages.
- Weproc is on that official list (registered December 23, 2025, platform no. 0104 operated through WeInvoice), while most procurement software vendors on the market hold no registration of their own.

How do you verify that a vendor is actually approved?
The DGFiP publishes two downloadable lists on impots.gouv.fr: operators meeting all the conditions (interoperability tests included) and those still awaiting tests. That is the only source that counts: a “2026 compliant” badge on a commercial website is not a registration. Three useful checks: the exact name of the operator on the list (the registration is held by a specific legal entity), the date the registration was granted, and whether the registered entity matches the one signing your contract. For how PAs fit into the reform as a whole, see our guide to approved e-invoicing platforms in 2026.
Which procurement and P2P vendors are approved?
This is where the check gets interesting. Among the procurement (P2P) platforms used by French SMBs and mid-market companies, very few hold their own registration:
| Vendor (procurement / P2P software) | On the official DGFiP list? | Registration date |
|---|---|---|
| Weproc (WeInvoice platform, no. 0104) | Yes — approved | December 23, 2025 |
| Basware | Yes — approved | December 18, 2025 |
| Medius | Yes — approved | January 8, 2026 |
| Oxalys | Not on the list as of 08/27/2026 | — |
| Ivalua | Not on the list as of 08/27/2026 | — |
| Coupa | Not on the list as of 08/27/2026 | — |
| Axiscope | Not on the list as of 08/27/2026 | — |
| Fluxym | Not on the list as of 08/27/2026 | — |
| iSYBUY | Not on the list as of 08/27/2026 | — |
| Swott | Not on the list as of 08/27/2026 | — |
| Corcentric | Not on the list as of 08/27/2026 | — |
| Proactis | Not on the list as of 08/27/2026 | — |
Worth noting
Not being on the list does not mean a vendor is non-compliant. A vendor without its own registration can rely on a third-party Approved Platform for its customers’ compliance. The difference lies elsewhere: with a vendor that is approved in its own right, invoicing flows, support and contractual liability stay with a single provider — with no dependency on an intermediary you did not choose.
What about invoicing and finance solutions?
On the invoice processing / finance segment, registration is more common — useful if you combine a procurement tool with an invoicing tool:
| Vendor (invoicing / AP / finance) | On the official DGFiP list? | Registration date |
|---|---|---|
| Yooz | Yes — approved | December 11, 2025 |
| Esker | Yes — approved | December 11, 2025 |
| Iopole | Yes — approved | December 11, 2025 |
| Pennylane | Yes — approved | December 11, 2025 |
| Docoon | Yes — approved | December 15, 2025 |
| Qonto | Yes — approved | December 18, 2025 |
| Cegid | Yes — approved | December 18, 2025 |
| Sage | Yes — approved | December 22, 2025 |

What should you do before September 1, 2026?
Three actions, in order: 1) make sure your company can receive electronic invoices through an Approved Platform — the obligation that applies to every company from September 1, 2026; 2) check your current vendors’ actual status on the official list; 3) if you already issue a high volume of invoices, get ahead of the September 2027 issuance deadline rather than joining the 2027 onboarding rush.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between PA, PDP and PPF?
“Approved Platform” (PA, plateforme agréée) is the current official name of what used to be called a “PDP” (plateforme de dématérialisation partenaire). The public portal (PPF) is no longer an exchange platform for companies: it hosts the central directory and forwards data to the tax administration — so going through a PA is how companies exchange invoices. The roles are detailed in our article on the 2026 e-invoicing architecture (PPF, PA, OD, Chorus Pro).
My procurement software is not on the list: am I non-compliant?
Not necessarily: your compliance can run through a third-party PA connected to your tool. Check contractually who holds the registration, who provides support if a transmission fails, and what happens to your flows if that partnership changes.
Is Weproc an Approved Platform?
Yes. Weproc is on the official DGFiP list of platforms that passed the interoperability tests (registration granted December 23, 2025). The platform, operated under the WeInvoice brand (no. 0104), is natively integrated into the Weproc procurement suite — invoices are received and issued in the same tool as your orders, through PA Connect.
