France Factur-X / Chorus Pro E-Invoicing for WooCommerce

Key Features

Generates Factur-X hybrid invoices — a PDF/A-3 document with an embedded EN 16931-compliant CII XML attachment — on WooCommerce order completion

Hooks into the WooCommerce order lifecycle (woocommerce_order_status_completed, woocommerce_checkout_order_processed, woocommerce_order_refunded) so invoices and credit notes generate automatically

Maps WooCommerce tax rate classes to French TVA codes, including standard, reduced, and exempt rates with correct category codes in the XML

Captures and validates buyer SIRET (14-digit) and SIREN (9-digit) identifiers via custom checkout fields, with Luhn-key validation before order placement

Submits invoices to Chorus Pro or your registered PDP through their API, with OAuth/API-key credential management stored in wp-admin settings

WP-Cron-based retry queue that re-attempts failed transmissions and records each PDP/Chorus Pro lifecycle status code against the order

HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage / custom order tables) compatible — stores invoice metadata and transmission state without relying on legacy post meta

wp-admin dashboard listing every order's e-invoice status (generated, submitted, accepted, rejected) with one-click regeneration and re-submission

Full audit log of every generated XML, transmitted payload, and acknowledgement, exportable for accountant or auditor review

Exposes invoice status and Factur-X files through a custom WooCommerce REST API namespace for ERP / accounting-system integration

WPML and multisite aware — respects per-site seller identity, TVA registration, and locale on multi-store WordPress installs

Honest configurability: built around your catalog, tax setup, and chosen submission route rather than a generic template

About this Product

France's e-invoicing reform makes structured, EN 16931-compliant invoices mandatory for B2B transactions — and a default WooCommerce store cannot produce them. Out of the box WooCommerce emits an HTML order-confirmation and, at best, a flat PDF from a generic invoicing plugin. Neither carries the embedded Factur-X XML (CII syntax) that France's reform requires, and neither knows how to reach Chorus Pro or a registered PDP (Plateforme de Dématérialisation Partenaire).

This is a build-to-order plugin: ECOSIRE designs, develops, installs, and supports it directly on your WordPress/WooCommerce site. It is not an instant WordPress.org download — we build it around your TVA setup, your product catalog, and your chosen submission route, then deploy it for you.

What it does. On every qualifying B2B order, the plugin hooks into WooCommerce's order lifecycle (woocommerce_order_status_completed, woocommerce_checkout_order_processed) to generate a Factur-X hybrid file — a human-readable PDF/A-3 with a conformant EN 16931 / CTC-profile XML attachment. It maps your WooCommerce tax rates to French TVA codes, captures and validates buyer SIRET / SIREN identifiers at checkout, and stores everything against the order using HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage)-compatible meta so it works on modern WooCommerce.

Submission. The plugin pushes invoices to Chorus Pro (for public-sector / B2G flows) or to your registered PDP via its API, with a WP-Cron retry queue, status tracking, and a wp-admin dashboard showing transmission state per order. Every payload, acknowledgement, and lifecycle status code is logged for audit.

Because we build it to order, the plugin fits your WooCommerce — including WPML/multisite and the WooCommerce REST API — rather than forcing you onto a one-size-fits-all template.

Who this is for

French B2B WooCommerce seller under the reform

A France-based merchant selling to other businesses who must issue structured, EN 16931-compliant e-invoices and can no longer rely on a flat PDF. Needs Factur-X generation and PDP/Chorus Pro routing wired directly into their existing WooCommerce checkout.

WooCommerce store with an existing accountant or ERP

A finance lead or external accountant who needs every B2B sale to produce an auditable, structured invoice that flows into their accounting workflow. Values the REST API exposure, audit log, and correct TVA category mapping over a flashy front-end.

Agency or developer serving French e-commerce clients

A WordPress agency that needs compliant e-invoicing delivered for a client's store without building Factur-X XML, CTC profiles, and Chorus Pro/PDP API plumbing in-house. Wants ECOSIRE to build, install, and support the plugin so they can focus on the client relationship.

Frequently Asked Questions about France Factur-X / Chorus Pro E-Invoicing for WooCommerce

How long does delivery take, since this isn't an instant download?

This is a build-to-order plugin, so it is not an instant marketplace download. After purchase we collect your seller details (SIRET/SIREN, TVA setup), your WooCommerce tax configuration, and your chosen submission route (Chorus Pro and/or a specific PDP). Typical build, installation, and test-environment validation runs about 2 to 4 weeks depending on the complexity of your tax mapping and PDP onboarding. We confirm a firm timeline with you before work begins, and we install and activate it directly on your WordPress site.

What happens with ongoing support and updates after delivery?

Your purchase includes a post-delivery support window for fixes and configuration help. Because WooCommerce, WordPress core, and France's e-invoicing rules (EN 16931 profiles, CTC requirements, Chorus Pro / PDP APIs) all evolve, we offer ongoing compatibility updates under a support plan. If a PDP changes its API or a new CTC profile requirement lands, we update the plugin on your site rather than leaving you to patch it yourself.

Does this work with HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage)?

Yes. The plugin is built against WooCommerce's HPOS / custom order tables. It stores invoice metadata, transmission state, and lifecycle status codes using the HPOS-compatible order data store rather than legacy post meta, so it works correctly on modern WooCommerce installs that have HPOS enabled.

Can it submit to a specific PDP as well as Chorus Pro?

Yes. Chorus Pro is the public portal (primarily for B2G flows), but France's reform also runs through registered PDPs (Plateformes de Dématérialisation Partenaires) for B2B exchange. We configure the plugin to route invoices to Chorus Pro, to your chosen PDP via its API, or both — using credentials you control, stored in wp-admin, and validated against the test environment first.

Will it handle my French TVA rates and SIRET/SIREN data correctly?

Yes. During the build we map your WooCommerce tax rate classes to the correct French TVA codes and EN 16931 tax category codes — including standard, reduced, and exempt cases. We add validated SIRET (14-digit) and SIREN (9-digit) checkout fields for buyer data, with key validation so malformed identifiers are caught before an order is placed and before an invoice is generated.

Why not just use a generic WooCommerce PDF invoice plugin?

Generic PDF invoice plugins produce a human-readable PDF only. France's reform requires a structured, machine-readable invoice — the embedded EN 16931 XML inside a Factur-X hybrid file — plus transmission through Chorus Pro or a PDP. Off-the-shelf plugins generally do neither the conformant XML nor the PDP routing. This plugin is purpose-built for that requirement and tailored to your store's tax and identity setup.
