What Teledec does

Teledec is a Paris-based French SaaS provider that enables businesses, independent professionals, real-estate companies (SCI), and non-professional furnished rental investors (LMNP) to electronically submit their annual corporate tax returns (liasse fiscale) to the Direction Générale des Finances Publiques (DGFiP). Operating since 2013 via teledec.fr, the company has processed more than 200,000 fiscal liasses and positions itself as a low-cost, pay-per-filing alternative to annual accounting software subscriptions and paper filings, serving primarily French SMEs, indépendants, SCI, and LMNP filers.

The company's core technology is an EDI-TDFC (Échange de Données Informatisé - Traitement des Déclarations Fiscales Centralisées) implementation compliant with the UN-EDIFACT standard and certified by the French tax authority as an authorized EDI Partner under number 7500201. The platform accepts imports from the dominant French accounting packages (CIEL, EBP, SAGE, OXYGENE, CEGID), pre-fills official Cerfa forms, validates declarations in real time before transmission, and offers an optional add-on for depositing annual accounts with the commercial court registry (Greffe). A REST API offering - API Balance for partial integration and API Marque Blanche (white-label) for full branding - allows accounting software publishers and financial institutions to embed DGFiP-grade tele-transmission directly into their own products. Data is hosted in France and secured via SSL.

Teledec operates a purely transactional revenue model: €99 HT per simplified-regime declaration, €149 HT per normal-regime declaration, and €99-129 HT for court registry (greffe) deposits, with no annual subscription. A complementary usage-based API revenue stream bills software partners on a tiered, declining per-unit basis as transmission volumes scale. Distribution runs through two channels: a direct self-service portal acquired primarily via SEO, content marketing, and a referral (parrainage) program, and a B2B2C API channel that reaches end users through partner platforms such as Memsoft/Oxygène, ORDI 3000/W-Diamant, Adicom/Compt'Act, Pennylane, Indy, Inqom, Nopillo, ytems, qlower, and lmnp.ai. Teledec was acquired by Norwegian enterprise software group Visma in 2024 and operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary within the Visma portfolio, also extending into French social security declarations via the companion brand TELEDSN.fr.

Core offering

Teledec operates a SaaS platform that enables French businesses, independents, SCI real estate companies, and LMNP investors to complete and electronically transmit their annual corporate tax returns (liasse fiscale) directly to the Direction Générale des Finances Publiques (DGFiP) via the official EDI-TDFC protocol. The service supports online form pre-filling via import from major French accounting software, real-time validation, and optional bundled filing of annual accounts with the commercial court registry (greffe). A REST API (Balance API and White Label API) is also offered to accounting software publishers and financial institutions for embedded fiscal transmission at volume-based pricing.

Product overview

TELEDEC is a SaaS platform for French fiscal tele-transmission (télédéclaration), primarily serving SMEs, freelancers, LMNP (furnished rental property owners), and SCI (real estate companies). The core product is the liasse fiscale EDI tele-transmission service, which transmits corporate tax returns to the DGFiP. An optional add-on service handles annual account deposit at the Commercial Court Registry. A separate API product (TELEDEC API) targets software publishers and partners who want to embed fiscal tele-transmission into their own solutions. The related brand TELEDSN.fr handles social security declarations. TELEDEC is part of the Visma group following a 2024 acquisition.

Emerging players

• Pennylane: French cloud accounting and financial management platform serving SMBs; is both a customer/partner (uses Teledec's API) and an adjacent player that could internalize fiscal transmission functionality, representing both distribution channel and competitive risk.
• Indy: French online accounting and tax filing platform focused on freelancers/indépendants; integrates Teledec's API for fiscal transmission while also offering competing all-in-one accounting+filing product experiences for the same customer segment.
• Inqom: French online accounting SaaS for SMBs that integrates Teledec's API; represents the same 'embedded fiscal' partnership model while owning the broader accounting workflow that could subsume fiscal transmission over time.

Direct peers

• Silae: French cloud payroll and social/fiscal declarations SaaS serving SMEs and accountancy firms; competes head-on with Teledec's TELEDSN adjacent offering and shares the same DGFiP/EDIFICAS compliance orientation.
• Cegid: Leading French ERP/accounting/payroll SaaS vendor with full liasse fiscale and EDI-TDFC capabilities; directly competes with Teledec for corporate fiscal compliance workflows of French SMEs. Comparable in regulatory focus but operates a far broader suite.

Broad incumbents

• EBP: French accounting and ERP software vendor with substantial installed base among French SMEs and integrated fiscal declaration features; competes in the same SME compliance workflow as Teledec as part of a broader portfolio.
• Avalara: Global tax compliance automation platform (VAT, sales tax, e-invoicing); operates at much larger scale and broader geography, but pursues the same core thesis of automating regulatory filing through software/API for businesses.
• PayFit: European payroll and HR SaaS leader with operations in France, Spain, Germany and UK; comparable in handling regulated SME compliance workflows but broader scope (payroll-led versus fiscal-led at Teledec).
• Sage France: Global accounting software incumbent with a large French SME installed base and integrated fiscal declaration tools; covers the same French SME compliance workflow as Teledec but as part of a much broader accounting/ERP portfolio.

Regional players

• Nibelis: French-Spanish payroll and HR SaaS serving SMEs and accounting firms; comparable to Teledec's regulated compliance workflows with pan-Iberian presence, illustrating a plausible expansion template.
