Field mapping management for e-invoice file templates for France

Manage field mappings for e-invoice templates used in France's e-invoicing clearance process to ensure compliance with business and regulatory requirements.

Manage field mapping for e-invoice file templates in the France clearance process so that the generated payload contains the France-specific identifiers and business data required by Avalara. If the default field mapping does not align with your business requirements, you might need to customize the default template.

E-invoicing business regions configuration for France

Configure the France business region with the seller data required for the France package:

  • Country: France.

  • Legal Business Name: Enter the full official legal name of the seller.

  • Legal Business Number: Enter the SIREN number.

  • Business Number Schema Id: Enter 0002.

  • Tax Register Number: Enter FR followed by the SIRET number.

  • E-Invoice Destination Code: Enter the Addressing Line Identifier.

  • E-Invoice Destination Code Schema Id: Enter 0225.

  • Service Provider: Avalara.

  • E-Invoice Process: Clearance.

  • Billing document types: Invoice, Credit Memo, and Debit Memo.

Both the seller and buyer sections must be supplied with the required France values. The SIREN, SIRET, and Addressing Line Identifier must be configured during the Avalara France activation process.

E-invoicing profiles for accounts configuration in France

Configure e-invoicing profiles for customer accounts involved in France e-invoicing. At a minimum, make sure the customer account is enabled for e-invoicing and that the buyer legal name, legal business number, tax registration details, and destination code details are complete and consistent with the France setup.

For buyer-side France data, use the same France-specific identifiers where applicable:

  • Legal Business Number: SIREN number.

  • Business Number Schema Id: 0002 when the SIREN-based identifier is required.

  • Tax Register Number: FR + SIRET number.

  • E-Invoice Destination Code: Addressing Line Identifier.

  • E-Invoice Destination Code Schema Id: 0225.

Sold-to contact configuration for France

Configure the sold-to contact with complete France address information, including country, address lines, postal code, city, and state or region where applicable. Use consistent buyer contact and address data because these values are part of the data set used in template generation, submission, and validation.
