FAQ: Tax Preparation Services
Who needs to file a tax return in France?
Anyone who is a tax resident in France, whether in Troyes or elsewhere, is obliged to report their earnings to the French tax administration. This concerns employees, freelancers, entrepreneurs, and pensioners. Even if a taxpayer falls below the taxable threshold, filing a declaration may still be necessary to claim credits or exemptions or to stay compliant in case of subsequent audits.
Expats and foreign residents must also file a tax return if they live primarily in France or work within the country. Likewise, property owners in France, whether residents or non-residents, are subject to declaration obligations for any income generated from rentals.
What are the deadlines and penalties for late filing?
Each year, the French tax office publishes specific deadlines for annual tax declarations, generally falling between mid-May and early June, depending on the place of residence and filing method (paper or online).

As certified experts, we rely on specialized tax software that allows us to start working on your tax return as early as January 1st. To guarantee precision, improve your fiscal position, and reduce time pressure, we suggest getting in touch as early as possible.
Failure to meet the official deadlines may lead to fines, making early preparation even more crucial.
A delayed filing leads to an additional surcharge: a 10% increase applies if no official reminder is issued, increasing up to 40% if the French tax office officially notifies the taxpayer. Late payment interest of 0.20% per month is also added to the amount due. If the failure is considered willful or fraudulent, severe sanctions may be applied.
How can I legally reduce my income tax?
There are several legitimate methods to reduce your income tax in France. Real estate investment is an reliable way to reduce fiscal pressure, particularly through the LMNP regime, which grants fiscal incentives.
Other ways to save on taxes include the Malraux law, which offers strong incentives for the restoration of heritage buildings; the property deficit scheme, which lets property owners subtract works expenses; and the MH regime, offering substantial tax advantages for the preservation of classified heritage buildings.
French assurance-vie is another advantageous option: after a holding period of 8 years, it benefits from a reduced tax rate, making it an smart option for transferring assets and tax optimization.
SME investment or tax-advantaged vehicles like investment funds with tax perks can also lead to a tax reduction of up to 25% of the qualified contribution, depending on compliance with criteria.
This is only a snapshot! Our advisors are here to guide you to find the best tax-saving opportunities for minimizing your liabilities.
How to file your tax return online?
The digital filing platform is the preferred method of the French tax administration, managed on the official government website impots.gouv.fr.
However, as authorized tax advisors, we simplify the process for our clients. Instead of filing through their personal tax account, they simply complete a specific questionnaire on our website.
Once the information is submitted, we manage the full tax submission and submit it directly to the tax authorities via secure EDI connection, providing precision, legal conformity, and efficiency—without forcing taxpayers to use impots.gouv.fr.
After submission, the tax administration assesses the amount of tax owed or any potential refund.
