Summary

Ms. Mathilde Feld questions the Minister of the Economy, Finance and Industrial, Energy and Digital Sovereignty on the choices made by the Government in the implementation of the digital invoicing reform and their consequences on the lives of small businesses. On September 1, 2026, companies will be faced with the first step in implementing the reform, namely the obligation to register on a platform approved by the State to receive electronic invoices. From September 1, 2027, companies will be obliged to issue electronic invoices. Although it was not required to do so as part of the transposition of the European directive, France has chosen to generalize the use of electronic invoices, requiring all companies, regardless of their size and sectors of activity. mrs the MP is regularly questioned by farmers, artisans and very small businesses in her constituency who share their anger with her as the September 2026 deadline approaches, while the Government has not set up, contrary to its commitments, a free public portal for this obligation. The constraints generated by the reform will further increase fixed costs and complicate daily life entrepreneurs whose activity is already undermined by the increase in prices linked, among other things, to the rise in oil prices. The feeling shared on the ground is that this reform will amplify the digital divide, increase administrative work, and even push certain entrepreneurs to close their doors. Also, she asks him the reasons which led the Government to make electronic invoicing compulsory. between companies even though this is in no way a European obligation. She finally asks him what concrete support will be offered on the ground to small businesses, many of which are not members of professional organizations but will be forced in the coming weeks to choose a platform.
