France reporting cycles and business-day rules
French business-day cycles align with DSN (Déclaration Sociale Nominative) due on the 5th (large employers) or 15th (small employers), URSSAF social-charge settlement, and quarterly TVA filings. Banque de France-administered TARGET2 clears euro payments same-day; SEPA cycles match the German timeline. The LME (Loi de modernisation de l'économie, August 4, 2008) caps payment terms at 60 days end-of-month or 45 days end-of-month for international invoices under Code de commerce L441-10. Court deadlines under CPC Article 642 roll to the next jour ouvrable when they land on a non-working day.
