Quadient announced a major operational milestone as France’s national e-invoicing reform officially takes effect. The company announced that more than 800,000 entities are registered in the French Tax Authority central directory through its approved platform, Serensia by Quadient, and its partners. This approved platform demonstrates high readiness to handle accelerating transaction volumes.
This initial milestone marks the beginning of a phased rollout. The next phase takes effect in September 2027 when mandates expand to small and medium-sized businesses.
“September 1 marks an important milestone for French businesses: e-invoicing is now entering its operational phase. For Quadient, this reform represents far more than a compliance requirement,” said Geoffrey Godet, CEO of Quadient. “It accelerates the digitalization of financial processes and, beyond invoicing, enables businesses to automate, improve reliability, simplify operations, and gain greater visibility into their financial flows. With Serensia by Quadient, we will support our customers throughout this transformation over the long term.”
Driving Operational Compliance and European Growth
The operational launch follows a successful pilot program by Quadient involving major energy providers. Transaction volumes are increasing rapidly as of the end of August. More than 100,000 e-invoices have already been processed through the platform. In fact, over 25,000 businesses, including TotalEnergies and Dalkia, have exchanged live e-invoices.
Furthermore, data security remains vital as B2B invoicing flows transition to certified platforms. Serensia by Quadient maintains ISO 27001 certification and SecNumCloud-qualified infrastructure from ANSSI. Consequently, corporate clients receive maximum protection for sensitive financial data.
“The pilot has enabled us to progressively move from preparation to the use of the Serensia by Quadient platform, with exchanges taking place under real-world conditions. The acceleration we have seen in recent weeks confirms both the growing mobilization of businesses and our ability to support the ramp-up of the reform,” said Stéphanie Auchabie, Senior Vice President, Sales and Operations Europe at Quadient.
Compliance is a step toward more widespread financial transformation. The platform takes the information from an invoice and turns it into structured data that can be dropped straight into a corporation.
E-invoicing legislation is on the march throughout Europe. Belgium will require B2B e-invoicing from January 2026, and Germany will start phased implementations in 2027. Ireland and the UK are also looking at implementations in 2028 and 2029. In the meantime, Quadient continues to provide its Quadient AR and Quadient AP solutions to clients across these markets. Looking ahead, Quadient will enable businesses to comply with national mandates and the impending transition to the European ViDA framework by July 2030.
