Cyplom ranked Excellent by Décideurs in VAT and tax technology

What the ranking says

Décideurs – Leaders League ranks Cyplom Avocats as Excellent in its France 2026 edition, in tax law – VAT and in tax technology.

This is a step up: in the 2024 edition, the firm was listed among the firms with strong reputation in VAT.

What the distinction covers

A year of matters, first of all: audits and refund claims, structuring of cross-border flows, characterisation of transactions with no settled precedent, and supporting companies through both e-invoicing and the transfer of VAT from the French Tax Code (Code général des impôts, hereafter "FTC") to Book II of the Code on Taxes on Goods and Services (code des impositions sur les biens et services, "CIBS").

The "tax technology" category covers the part of the work that is not legal reasoning alone: configuring mandatory invoice statements, the structured data of electronic invoices, audits of computerised accounting records, and the tools we make available to practitioners.

A ranking says nothing about the substance of a file

It does reflect a year of work, and that work belongs to a team. VAT and tax technology are two fields where everything turns on detail: one invoice statement, one poorly documented flow, one configuration line. That standard rests on those who go through each file line by line, reread, check and start again — Grégoire Person, Thomas Le Boucher, Corentin Auve, Adrien Béatrix and Débora Grimaldi.

Thank you to our clients, who brought us demanding matters. Thank you to the fellow lawyers and advisers who refer files to us, often on questions whose answer had not yet been written.

On the VAT recodification, we provide a concordance table between the FTC and the CIBS, article by article, and we explain why invoices should cite the VAT Directive rather than the CIBS in Mentions de TVA sur facture : viser la directive plutôt que le CIBS (in French).
