    FAQ: Tax Advisory Services

    What are the responsibilities of FTO as a tax advisor in Nouméa?

    We aim to assist both individuals and businesses in managing and optimizing their tax situation in France.

    Our services cover the following:

    • Strategic tax planning
    • Tax return filings
    • Help for French residents abroad
    • Monitoring tax compliance
    • Support during tax inspections, with legal experts

    How can I legally reduce my income tax?

    In France, many legal strategies exist to lower your income tax.

    One effective strategy is real estate investment, particularly using tax schemes such as the LMNP status, which offers significant tax benefits.

    You can also consider life insurance: after eight years, it provides reduced taxation and serves as a valuable wealth transfer tool.

    SME investments or tax-advantaged funds like FIP and FCPI can provide tax reductions of up to 25% of the invested amount, if specific criteria are met.

    These are only a few of the many options available. Our advisors are here to help you find the most suitable tax strategies for improved tax efficiency.

    What should I do in case of a tax audit?

    The first step is to carefully analyze the request from the tax authorities to identify which documents are required and which period is concerned.

    A solid response relies on the submission of justifying paperwork, such as invoices, bank statements, or contracts, to justify the truthfulness of your tax declaration.

    It is crucial to respect the deadlines, as not replying in time may trigger sanctions.

    Generally, the tax administration allows thirty days to submit the requested documents.

    To avoid any errors that could increase the risk of sanctions, it is highly recommended to consult a tax professional, like us.

    If inaccuracies or gaps are noted, non-contentious options are possible.

    Negotiating with the tax office can lessen financial consequences and reach a solution under the most advantageous circumstances.

    With our expertise and certification with French fiscal institutions, we provide a precise and protected management of these procedures, for your full confidence when facing a tax audit.

    What is the difference between a tax advisor and a tax lawyer?

    A tax advisor and a tax lawyer have complementary roles, but they operate in different areas and serve distinct purposes.

    Professionals like French Tax Online guide private clients and companies in minimizing their tax burden.

    Their expertise helps decrease taxes in compliance with the law, submit returns without error, and follow effective tax approaches.

    Their approach is risk-avoidant, aiming to minimize audit risks.

    Conversely, a tax lawyer specializes in tax law, who primarily intervenes in contentious tax situations.

    They are empowered to defend taxpayers in court and argue cases on their behalf.

    Their role becomes decisive when amicable solutions are no longer possible and court representation becomes necessary.
