    FAQ: Tax Advisory Services

    What are the responsibilities of FTO as a tax advisor in Saint-Paul?

    We are committed to help both individuals and businesses in managing and optimizing their tax situation in France.

    Our services cover the following:

    • Reducing your tax burden
    • Preparation and submission of tax returns
    • Support for expatriates
    • Handling of fiscal responsibilities
    • Support during tax inspections, with legal experts

    How can I legally reduce my income tax?

    France offers multiple compliant strategies to minimize your income tax burden.

    One effective strategy is real estate investment, particularly using tax schemes such as the Non-Professional Furnished Rental (LMNP) status, which can lead to significant tax benefits.

    Another powerful tool is life insurance: after eight years, it enables reduced taxation and serves as a valuable wealth transfer tool.

    Investing in SMEs or tax-incentivized investment funds (FIP and FCPI) can offer tax reductions of up to 25% of your investment, subject to eligibility.

    And that’s just the beginning! Our tax experts can help you find the most suitable tax strategies for greater tax savings.

    What should I do in case of a tax audit?

    Step one is to review in detail the request from the tax authorities to understand which documents are required and which period is concerned.

    A comprehensive response relies on the ability to provide reliable supporting evidence, such as invoices, bank statements, or agreements, to support the truthfulness of your tax declaration.

    It is crucial to meet the deadlines, as delays may cause penalties.

    Generally, the tax administration offers a 30-day period to send in the necessary documents.

    To avoid any errors that could worsen the situation, it is prudent to consult a tax professional, like us.

    If errors or omissions are identified, friendly settlements are possible.

    Negotiating with the tax office can minimize penalties and close the case under the most advantageous circumstances.

    With our in-depth knowledge and accreditation with the French tax authorities, we guarantee a rigorous and secure management of these procedures, ensuring reassurance when facing a tax audit.

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

    The roles of a tax advisor and a tax lawyer complement each other, but they differ in their areas of intervention and the needs they address.

    Tax advisors like French Tax Online support taxpayers and business owners in minimizing their tax burden.

    Their expertise helps decrease taxes in compliance with the law, submit returns without error, and implement optimal tax planning.

    Their approach is proactive, aiming to avoid risks of tax reassessment.

    In contrast, a tax lawyer is trained in litigation and tax procedures, who primarily intervenes in legal tax matters and disputes.

    They are empowered to act on behalf of clients before a judge and argue cases on their behalf.

    Their role becomes decisive when negotiations with tax authorities fail and court representation becomes necessary.
