    FAQ: Tax Advisory Services

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

    We aim to help both individuals and businesses in handling and improving their tax situation in France.

    Our services cover the following:

    • Reducing your tax burden
    • Preparation and submission of tax returns
    • Guidance for expats on French taxation
    • Monitoring tax compliance
    • Assistance in case of a tax audit, in collaboration with our lawyers

    How can I legally reduce my income tax?

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

    Investing in property is a powerful tax optimization tool, particularly using tax schemes such as the furnished rental status (LMNP), which grants significant tax benefits.

    Life insurance is another option: after eight years, it comes with 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 your investment, if specific criteria are met.

    These are just a few examples! Our advisors are here to help you choose the best ways to optimize your tax situation for improved tax efficiency.

    What should I do in case of a tax audit?

    Step one is to properly assess the request from the tax authorities to determine which documents are required and which period is concerned.

    A solid response relies on the provision of strong supporting documents, such as bills, bank statements, or contracts, to justify the accuracy of your tax declaration.

    It is vital to respect the deadlines, as missing the deadline may trigger penalties.

    Generally, the tax administration provides a 30-day period to submit the requested documents.

    To minimize mistakes that could increase the risk of sanctions, it is prudent to work with a tax advisor, like us.

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

    Negotiating with the tax office can lessen financial consequences and close the case under the most advantageous circumstances.

    With our expertise and official recognition by French tax services, we provide a reliable and compliant management of these procedures, giving our clients peace of mind 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 differ in their areas of intervention and the needs they address.

    A tax advisor, like French Tax Online, assists private clients and companies in managing their tax affairs efficiently.

    Their expertise helps decrease taxes in compliance with the law, file tax returns correctly, and follow effective tax approaches.

    Their approach is forward-looking, aiming to reduce the likelihood of tax disputes.

    In contrast, a tax lawyer is trained in litigation and tax procedures, who primarily manages 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 critical when negotiations with tax authorities fail and legal defense is required.
