Babelway, a Tradeshift company, the trusted B2B integration, EDI and document exchange platform you know and rely on, has officially been registered (immatriculée) as a Plateforme de Dématérialisation Partenaire (PDP) by the French authorities. Here’s what this means for you and your organization’s compliance with the upcoming B2B e-invoicing, tax clearance and e-reporting mandate in France.
What is a PDP and Why Does it Matter?
The French government is rolling out in a phased process, with businesses operating in France needing to be fully compliant by September 2026, their CTC (continuous transaction control) tax clearance and its mandatory e-invoicing and e-reporting system called Portail Public de Facturation (PPF). This system requires businesses to exchange invoices electronically in a secure and standardized format.
Here’s where a PDP (Plateforme de Dématérialisation Partenaire) comes in. A PDP (Plateforme de Dématérialisation Partenaire) is a government-approved platform that acts as a trusted intermediary for exchanging e-invoices. This ensures data integrity, security, and compliance with all legal requirements of the French Finance Law.
