The regulated taxi sector is entering an unprecedented phase of regulatory transformation. Law No. 2026-534 of June 25, 2026, requires all taxis regulated by Health Insurance to adopt an integrated electronic billing system (SEFi) and a certified geolocation device before January 1, 2027. This obligation redefines the tools that each driver must carry in their vehicle, and market players are adapting their offerings accordingly.
SEFi and certified geolocation: what the law requires from regulated taxis
The regulatory framework sets a precise timeline. Since November 1, 2025, a new national framework agreement and a new pricing structure have applied to regulated taxis. May 31, 2026, marked the mandatory switch to a CNDA certified software for billing in B2 standards. Any delay exposes one to suspension of their regulation.
The next step, on January 1, 2027, concerns physical equipment: each regulated vehicle must be equipped with an SEFi coupled with a geolocation device certified by Health Insurance. This dual requirement aims to ensure reliable tracking of health transport rides and to limit declarative fraud.
For a taxi driver, this concretely means that the payment terminal, billing software, and GPS unit must communicate with each other and meet strict technical standards. It is in this context that the innovations offered by Veritaxis take on direct operational significance, as the platform develops tools designed to meet these regulatory constraints.
B2B electronic billing: a second challenge for taxis and VTCs
The reform of electronic billing does not only concern large companies. Taxis and VTCs, as VAT-subject businesses, are gradually coming under the scope of e-reporting and B2B electronic invoicing.
The principle is based on the dematerialized transmission of each invoice via a partner dematerialization platform (PDP) or the public billing portal. For a taxi driver managing their accounting alone or with an agency, the transition to electronic billing modifies the entire chain: from issuing the invoice after the ride to its transmission to the CPAM or the professional client.
Two obligations converging on the same terminal
The SEFi mandated by the 2026 law and B2B electronic billing share a common foundation: the automatic generation of invoices compliant with current standards. A tool capable of simultaneously producing a B2 compliant invoice for Health Insurance and an electronic invoice for a professional client reduces the number of manipulations and the risk of error.
Solutions that integrate these two flows into a single onboard terminal stand out from traditional approaches, where the driver had to juggle between a card payment terminal, a separate software for CPAM billing, and a third tool for general accounting.
- CPAM billing in B2 standard directly from the onboard terminal, without manual re-entry of ride data
- Automatic generation of electronic invoices compliant with the format required by the B2B reform, transmitted via a PDP
- Certified geolocation integrated into the same unit, avoiding the installation of additional GPS equipment
CNDA certification and software choice: technical criteria to verify
CNDA certification (National Deposit and Approval Center) ensures that the software used complies with the technical specifications of Health Insurance for the teletransmission of invoices. An uncertified CNDA software exposes the driver to the suspension of their regulation, which amounts to losing access to reimbursed health transport rides.
When choosing software, several points deserve systematic verification:
- The actual presence of CNDA certification, verifiable on the official website of the deposit center
- Compatibility with onboard payment terminals (not all software works with all TPEs)
- Automatic updates in case of changes to billing standards, without manual intervention from the driver
- Technical support available in case of breakdown or invoice rejection by the CPAM
A certified software but poorly integrated into the onboard terminal can generate series of invoice rejections. The smoothness of the entire chain, from the start of the ride to the receipt of payment by the CPAM, depends as much on software quality as on hardware compatibility.
Mandatory examination and access to the profession: an additional filter
Alongside technological developments, access to the profession of VTC driver and motorcycle taxi driver has been tightened. The professional examination becomes mandatory for all new drivers, removing the equivalence access route that previously allowed practice without taking the test.
This measure directly concerns the renewal of the fleet of regulated drivers. A candidate wishing to transport patients must now pass the exam, then obtain their CPAM regulation, and then equip their vehicle with a terminal compliant with the SEFi. The barriers to entry are accumulating.
For drivers already in activity, the pressure comes rather from the regulatory timeline. Those who have not yet migrated to a CNDA certified software since May 31, 2026, are working under a deadline. The January 1, 2027 deadline for the SEFi and geolocation leaves only a few months of leeway.
The regulated taxi sector finds itself at the intersection of three simultaneous reforms: the SEFi, B2B electronic billing, and the tightening of access to the profession. Drivers who anticipate the January 2027 deadline by choosing a terminal integrating CPAM billing, geolocation, and e-reporting compatibility spare themselves an urgent migration.
