FAQ: Tax Preparation Services
Who needs to file a tax return in France?
Anyone who is a tax resident in France, including in Montreuil, is required to declare their income to the fiscal authorities. This concerns employees, self-employed professionals, business owners, and retirees. Even if a taxpayer does not earn taxable income, they may still need to file a return to claim credits or exemptions or to stay compliant in case of later tax adjustments.
Non-French citizens living in France must also file a tax return if they are fiscally domiciled in France or carry out business within the country. In the same way, property owners in France, whether residents or non-residents, are required to file a return for any rental income received.
What are the deadlines and penalties for late filing?
Each year, the tax authorities in France sets specific deadlines for annual tax declarations, generally scheduled between mid-May and early June, depending on the taxpayer’s department and how the return is submitted (by post or electronically).

As certified experts, we rely on specialized tax software that enables us to process your tax return as early as January 1st. To guarantee precision, maximize your tax benefits, and avoid last-minute stress, we recommend contacting us as early as possible.
Not complying with the official due dates may lead to fines, making early preparation even more important.
A missed deadline leads to an additional surcharge: a 10% surcharge applies if no formal notice is issued, increasing up to 40% if the tax authorities officially alerts you. Penalties for late payment of 0.20% per month is also added to the amount due. If the omission is deemed intentional or malicious, higher penalties may be imposed.
How can I legally reduce my income tax?
There are several legitimate methods to lower your tax bill in France. Investing in real estate is an reliable way to reduce fiscal pressure, particularly through the LMNP regime, which grants fiscal incentives.
Other fiscal tools include the Malraux scheme, which offers major tax relief for the restoration of classified structures; the déficit foncier mechanism, which allows landlords to deduct renovation costs; and the MH regime, offering important tax relief for the maintenance of classified heritage buildings.
A life insurance policy is another advantageous option: after eight years, it benefits from a reduced tax rate, making it an smart option for wealth transfer and tax optimization.
Participation in small business equity or tax-advantaged vehicles like FIP/FCPI structures can also offer a tax reduction of up to 25% of the invested amount, 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 greater efficiency.
How to file your tax return online?
The electronic tax submission process is the recommended approach of the French tax authorities, processed through the official government website French tax portal.
However, as authorized tax advisors, we simplify the process for our clients. Instead of filing through their individual space, they simply submit a specific questionnaire on our website.
Once the information is submitted, we take care of the full filing and submit it directly to the tax authorities via the EDI system, guaranteeing accuracy, adherence to rules, and reliability—without requiring clients to log in to impots.gouv.fr.
After submission, the tax administration assesses the amount of tax owed or any potential refund.
