Submit a French cross-border report

Submit a French e-reporting declaration for an operation with a business established outside France. These invoices are not exchanged over the French e-invoicing network, so their data is reported to the French tax administration instead. You do not need to create or submit a regulatory file yourself.

Use an invoice report for a single cross-border invoice or credit note. Report every such document; the buyer must not be established in France. Buyers in the European Union are identified by their VAT number, buyers elsewhere by their country and name.

Use a payment report for a payment received on a cross-border invoice. The invoice has to be reported before its payment can be, and the payment report refers back to it by invoiceNumber. Amounts on a payment report include VAT. Payment reports are only accepted for companies registered with VAT due on payment.

The company must be registered for French e-reporting first, through PUT /:companyId/reporting/fr/declarant. Reports for playground and test-network teams are recorded but not filed.

Choose a new, unique reference for every report, including corrections and cancellations. Retrying the exact same request with the same reference is safe: it returns the report filed the first time instead of filing a second one. A correction or cancellation acts on the report identified by the data in the request (the day and category of a daily total, or the document number of an invoice) and carries the optional action field.

A submitted report is recorded alongside your sent documents and counts towards your document quota.
