Do you send invoices to Chorus Pro?

No. We generate and validate the document. You download it and submit it yourself if the public body requires Chorus Pro.

Is this the official French CTC profile?

No. v1 prepares EN 16931 / Factur-X documents with a French required-field overlay. It does not implement EXTENDED-CTC-FR.

French e-invoicing conversion

Factur-X, UBL, and CII for B2B and public-sector documents

Use a dedicated French path to turn PDF invoices into EN 16931 documents with French required fields. Factur-X is the default. UBL and CII are available when the recipient asks for XML. We generate and validate the file. We do not transmit it to Chorus Pro, a Plateforme Agréée, or an e-reporting service.

What this product does for France

This rollout covers document generation and validation only. Choose B2B for private-sector recipients or B2G for public-sector recipients, then pick Factur-X, UBL, or CII.
