210: Refused

What it means

French e-invoicing status 210 Refusée means the recipient refuses the whole invoice. It is a mandatory status and always comes with a reason code.

The usual cause

The recipient does not accept the invoice; the reason code (field MDT-113) and the comment say why.

How to fix it

Look up the reason code, then cancel the invoice in your accounts with an internal credit note, which is not reported to the PPF, and issue a corrected invoice if one is due.

Once the file is corrected, check it again for free: Check an e-invoice
