If the supply is taxable under French reverse charge (i.e. VAT is paid on import), the transaction must be e-reported.
Report payment data only when VAT is due on receipt of payment, such as for services under โ€œcash VATโ€ (TVA sur les encaissements).
E-invoicing does not apply. If the business is liable to French VAT, e-reporting applies to the relevant flows. E-reporting for reverse-charge VAT and intra EU-acquisitions are deferred till 1 September 2027.
E-invoices cannot be deleted or retracted. Instead a credit note or corrected invoice can be sent referencing the original invoice.
