French Intrastat

Companies in France that are registered for value-added tax (VAT), and that trade with other European Union (EU) countries/regions, must declare the exchange of goods and services to and from France. The Declaration d'exchanges de biens (Declaration of Trade in Goods, or DEB) is a combination of the EU Sales List and the Intrastat report. You must submit this report monthly for all intracommunity sales of goods.

You can generate the DEB report in either of two electronic text file formats: SAISUNIC 330 or INTRACOM format.

The following table shows the fields that are included in the French Intrastat declaration in SAISUNIC 330 format. The table also indicates the report levels of each field. A field can have the following report levels:

  • 4 – Tax declaration.
  • 1 – Statistical response.
  • 5 – Statistical response to shipment and tax declaration, and joint filling.

In 2022, the NGP applies to only three types of products:

Only documents that have an EU country as the country or region of destination (for dispatches) or consignment (for arrivals) will be transferred.

Because the DEB report is a combination of the EU Sales List and the Intrastat report, it also includes triangular transactions, where a direct delivery is made from one EU country/region (party A) to another EU country/region (party C), and a French legal entity (party B) is in the middle of the triangular deal.
