Cher(e) client(e),
Conformément à l’article 286 du Code général des impôts (CGI) impose aux entreprises assujetties à la TVA d’utiliser des systèmes de caisse ou de gestion commerciale certifiés lorsqu’elles enregistrent des ventes à des particuliers. Le logiciel doit garantir l'inaltérabilité, la sécurisation, la conservation et l'archivage des données.
En vertu de l’article 43 de la loi n° 2025-127 du 14 février 2025 de finances pour 2025, publiée en février 2025 :
-
Les logiciels auto-certifiés ne seront plus acceptés après le 31 août 2025.
Du 1er septembre 2025 au 28 février 2026, les logiciels utilisés par les entreprises devront être :
-
soit certifiés par un organisme agréé (ex. : Infocert, LNE),
-
soit en cours de certification, avec un engagement ferme vers la conformité.
Ce que cela signifie pour vous :
À ce jour, les applications Zoho (y compris Zoho Invoice, Zoho Billing, Zoho Books, Zoho Inventory, Zoho Checkout, Zoho Commerce, ainsi que les offres groupées comme Zoho Finance Plus et Zoho One) ne sont pas commercialisées comme des systèmes de caisse et n’ont pas fait l’objet d’une auto-certification. Toutefois, si vous les utilisez pour enregistrer des ventes avec TVA, cette loi pourrait avoir un impact sur votre activité.
Zoho est actuellement en discussions avec un organisme agréé pour la certification. Comme ces discussions sont en court, nous recommandons fortement aux entreprises d’évaluer leurs options en tenant compte des échéances à venir. Nous vous tiendrons informé(e) de l’avancée des échanges avec nos partenaires.
Vos prochaines étapes :
-
Vérifiez si votre entreprise entre dans le champ d’application des nouvelles obligations (Par exemple : ventes B2C).
-
Passez en revue la façon dont vous utilisez actuellement Zoho pour votre facturation.
-
Si vous avez besoin d’une solution certifiée avant le 1er septembre 2025, envisagez de migrer vers une autre plateforme avant cette date.
Nous sommes là pour vous aider. Si vous avez des questions ou besoin d’assistance, contactez-nous à support@eu.zohobilling.com.

Use of Zoho in compliance with Article 286 du code général des impôts (CGI)
Dear Customer,
The 3 ° bis du I de l’article 286 du code général des impôts (CGI), requires VAT-registered businesses to use certified POS or cash register systems or business systems when recording sales to individuals. The software must ensure data inalterability, security, conservation, and archiving.
Under the L’article 43 de la loi n° 2025-127 du 14 février 2025 de finances pour 2025, published in Feb 2025:
Self-certified software will no longer be accepted after August 31, 2025
From September 1, 2025 to February 28, 2026, software used by businesses must be either, certified by an authorized body (e.g., Infocert, LNE) or in the process of certification and has shown firm commitment towards compliance.
What This Means for You
Zoho’s applications (including Zoho Invoice, Zoho Billing, Zoho Books, Zoho Inventory, Zoho Checkout, Zoho Commerce and bundles like Zoho Finance Plus and Zoho One) were not marketed as POS systems or cash registers and have not been self-certified. However, if you’ve been using them to record B2C sales, this law may impact your business.
Zoho is currently in discussions with one of the certified body. As the discussions have only just begun, we highly recommend businesses to evaluate their options with the upcoming deadlines. We will continue to keep you informed as the discussions progress with the certified partners.
Next Steps for You
Determine if your business falls under the scope of the new compliance requirements i.e B2C Sales
Review how you’re currently using Zoho for B2C billing.
If you need a certified solution before September 1, 2025, consider transitioning to another platform before the deadline
We’re here to help. If you have any questions or need support, reach out to us at support@eu.zohobilling.com.
Thank you for choosing Zoho.
