French auto‑entrepreneur invoicing tools Econozen and Tiime AE
Econozen and Tiime AE are platforms aimed at French micro‑entrepreneurs for creating and managing invoices. Both require users to configure mandatory details such as a consumer‑mediator’s contact information, the correct VAT statement (e.g., “TVA non applicable, article 293 B du CGI”) while under the franchise threshold, and to ensure electronic‑invoicing compatibility.
The French law on electronic invoicing becomes compulsory for qualified businesses in September 2026, with issuance extending to micro‑companies and SMEs in September 2027. Users must verify that their tool supports the Factur‑X format or an equivalent de‑materialisation portal and set alerts for approaching VAT limits. Both articles advise checking the exact scope of TVA, invoicing numbering, and legal mentions before the tools go live, and they highlight the need for early compliance to avoid administrative fines.
