Facturation via Clemz

PROs Vinted
21

to say that some don’t see the difference in staying with a personal account when they are professionals and declare their sales; for that matter, I wonder if it will still be possible?

I haven’t looked into this F.Elec matter, they always bother us, like changing the APE code, etc.

Yes, Mélanie summarized the situation for Vinted PRO sellers perfectly:

  • September 2026: You must be able to RECEIVE electronic invoices (using a bank like Qonto, Shine, or Indy is quite easy).
  • September 2027: You will need to be able to submit a summary of income from all your Vinted sales to individuals. => Clemz will comply to offer this to you :slight_smile:

For the invoice, I activated it on Abby, which I was using to create invoices. I absolutely need it for suppliers. And it’s free

Platforms send according to their frequency: for Vinted, this is therefore every year

=> the tax authorities want a « real-time sync » (like many companies, by the way) to check information as it comes in and not have to re-enter everything at once for control (in addition, they will be able to track threshold exceedances of micro-businesses in real time)

=> Automated controls and alerts to trigger a « real » inspector (human), so they will also save time (we are asked to reduce costs: as in service companies, labor is the most expensive, so they will inevitably reduce their budgets, once it’s running smoothly, of course…)

@Melqui it’s not on your tax space: there are more than twenty platforms approved by the State (in fact, I think we are even approaching fifty now), these are independent service providers for the Government (except Chorus pro, but it is only accessible to those who work on public contracts) :wink:

Yes, these are indeed authorized platforms and Chorus. There was a time when the chosen platform was to be notified on the impot.gouv space; however, this formality seems to be delegated to the chosen authorized platform, which will take care of adding the SIRET to the national directory. Nevertheless, there is a possibility of direct registration on the state portal for those without software.

Hello :waving_hand:, I’ve just looked into the matter and I’m sharing a summary of what I understood.

A - You are reselling personal items, you are not concerned.

B - You are buying and reselling, you are concerned and must choose an Approved Platform (AP) before 01/09/2026 (whether you are on a business account or a personal account :backhand_index_pointing_right: you should legally be on a business account, but we all know that many have 1 business account and 1 or more personal accounts, and we all know that all sales must be declared to URSSAF).

a - Are you registered (as a micro-enterprise, for example) and VAT exempt?

  1. You sell to French consumers (B2C), you can use ClemZ to send them PDF invoices by email, as you will not have any e-reporting obligations.
  2. You sell to foreign consumers (B2C), you will need to use invoicing software to send them PDF invoices by email (as consumers do not have APs) AND to generate a Factur-X electronic invoice for the administration, as you will have e-reporting obligations through this software (ClemZ is not an AP and therefore does not handle it).
  3. You sell to French and foreign businesses (B2B) (a very rare or even nonexistent case on Vinted, but you never know if a buyer might contact you as a business and ask for an electronic invoice), you will need to use invoicing software to send them Factur-X electronic invoices through approved APs. The invoicing software will then handle e-invoicing to transmit your sales to the administration. ATTENTION for French B2B sales, electronic invoicing will be mandatory from 09/2026! Other cases will be effective from 09/2027.
  4. All of this has no impact on the turnover declaration to URSSAF, which you must continue to make.

b - Are you registered and subject to VAT (e.g., as a micro-enterprise that has exceeded VAT thresholds)?

In all cases, you will need to use invoicing software. You will need to perform e-reporting for B2C sales (French and international) and international B2B sales, and e-invoicing for French B2B sales (from 09/2026!).

Personally, in addition to ClemZ, which is perfect for this, I use Tiime invoice, which is free and also an AP. So, that’s MY understanding of the upcoming electronic invoicing… :face_with_monocle:
