Article 88

的January 1, 2018, the French government has mandated that all merchants selling in France and subject toVAThave a certified system of records. This law is intended to help prevent tax fraud.

Shopify empowers merchants to be compliant with this law, but each merchant's situation is unique. It's important to consult with local legal professionals to determine if you comply with all local laws and regulations. Shopify doesn't submit tax records for you, but we provide a way to export the information in a format for you to submit on your own. How you submit your tax records depends on your local or national tax authority.

In order to be compliant with Article 88 in France, you need to download and complete thisLoi Anti-Fraude TVA documentand keep it in your records. This form was originally published in August 2020, and is still valid to download and submit.
