What should I do in case of a tax audit?
Step one is to properly assess the request from the tax authorities to identify which documents are required and which period is concerned.
A well-prepared response relies on the ability to provide relevant documentation, such as bills, bank statements, or contracts, to demonstrate the truthfulness of your tax declaration.
It is important to meet the deadlines, as delays may lead to negative consequences.
Generally, the tax administration grants 30 days to supply the information.
To prevent missteps that could complicate matters, it is wise to consult a tax professional, like us.
If errors or omissions are identified, amicable solutions are available.
Negotiation can help minimize penalties and settle the matter under the most advantageous circumstances.
With our specialized skills and accreditation with the French tax authorities, we guarantee a reliable and compliant management of these procedures, giving our clients peace of mind when facing a tax audit.
