Stay compliant with the new French certification rules
France implemented fiscalization in 2018. New rules from the February 2025 Financial Act, end the option for self‑certification and make third‑party certification mandatory.
By August 31, 2025, POS providers must have initiated the external certification process. By September 1, 2026, a valid third‑party certification is mandatory. Failure to comply can result in heavy penalties. Don’t risk it!
