The document you will file

The invoice

Every order produces a compliant French facture issued through Stripe Invoicing.

Your invoice is issued by PYSEA SAS, 112 avenue de Paris, CS 60002, 94306 Vincennes Cedex, France — RCS Créteil 848 696 811, VAT FR10848696811. Citenda is a product name of PYSEA and not a separate legal entity. Every invoice carries those identifiers, yours, the licence term dates, and amounts as HT / TVA / TTC.

Pending: a sample invoice is published here after the first order.

Where you are decides the VAT

VAT, by buyer location

VAT, by buyer location France: No VAT ID required at checkout → 20% French TVA. EU, outside France: Valid VIES VAT ID required → 0% — reverse charge (Art. 196). Invalid ID → checkout blocked. Outside the EU: No EU VAT applies → No EU VAT charged. France No VAT ID required at checkout 20% French TVA EU, outside France Valid VIES VAT ID required 0% — reverse charge (Art. 196) Invalid ID → checkout blocked Outside the EU No EU VAT applies No EU VAT charged
The VAT path is decided at checkout, by your billing country and VAT ID

The same rules, in words

France Invoice with 20% French TVA. A VAT ID is not required at checkout.
EU outside France B2B reverse charge: enter your VAT ID at checkout and the invoice shows 0% VAT with the reverse-charge mention (Art. 196, VAT Directive 2006/112/EC), and you self-account locally. We check the number against VIES after the order.
Outside the EU No EU VAT is charged. Any local import or use taxes are your affair.
EU business buyers: your VAT ID is checked against VIES.

We sell to businesses only. Enter your VAT ID at checkout and an EU business purchase is reverse-charged on it. We verify it against VIES after the order — if it does not hold up we re-issue the invoice with 20% French TVA and tell you. If your entity genuinely has no VAT ID, email us and we will handle the order manually: [email protected]

For procurement

Purchase orders & bank transfer

Card checkout is the default and completes every band unattended. From €1,500 HT you can instead request a pro-forma invoice payable by SEPA transfer; a PO number field is available at checkout and on manual orders. Delivery follows within 1 business day of payment, to the checkout email.

The mechanics

Options & riders

After the sale

Subscriptions

Annual subscriptions run in 12-month periods and renew tacitly. You can cancel at any time before the end of the term, without reason or charge; we give 30 days' notice if we cancel. Any renewal price change is notified at least 45 days before the term ends. Cancelling stops future renewals; the licence runs to the end of the paid term. Invoices arrive by email from Stripe.

Refunds

Full refund on request within 14 days of a first order, no reason needed. It applies to a first order only, not to renewals; it does not cover Snapshots above €5,000 HT; and it ends once you download a second edition. A refund ends the licence, and you delete your copies. (Terms of sale, §13.3.)
