Chorus Pro is a mandatory service provided by the French government for invoicing French public institutions. The platform allows businesses to upload invoices in multiple e-invoicing formats and track them throughout the French public administration process. All invoices to French public sector entities must be submitted through Chorus Pro.The platform supports various e-invoicing formats including Cross Industry Invoice (CII), and implements the European Norm 16931 (EN16931) European standard for electronic invoicing with additional French-specific requirements.Key Features

Invoice Modification: Supports modification and resubmission of invoices until they are accepted by the receiving French public institution.

Chorus Pro B2G Invoice

In this example, we’re issuing a Chorus Pro invoice for business-to-government transactions in France. Chorus Pro is the mandatory platform for submitting invoices to French public sector entities.Notice:

the minimal version (chorus-pro-b2g.min.mdx) contains only the essential fields required to create the B2G invoice,
the fr-chorus-pro-v1 addon ensures the document will be validated using the Chorus Pro rules built into the GOBL library,
the customer must be a French public sector entity with a valid SIRET number,
specific Chorus Pro extensions and identifiers are required for public procurement (such as service codes and commitment numbers),
there are no totals or calculations in the minimal version; all these will be calculated automatically when running gobl build,
the built version (chorus-pro-b2g.mdx) shows the normalized document with calculated totals, line item sums, TVA breakdowns, and automatically generated fields,
the invoice will be formatted according to Chorus Pro requirements and submitted through the platform, and,
all invoices to French public entities above €25,000 must be submitted through Chorus Pro.
