FAQ: Tax Advisory Services
What are the responsibilities of FTO as a tax advisor in Saint-Denis?
Our goal is to assist both individuals and businesses in navigating and enhancing their tax situation in France.
This typically involves:
- Optimization of your tax position
- Filing tax returns
- Tax assistance for expatriates
- Handling of fiscal responsibilities
- Assistance in case of a tax audit, in collaboration with our lawyers
How can I legally reduce my income tax?
You can legally reduce your income tax in France using several effective methods.
Real estate remains a smart way to reduce your taxes, notably via tax schemes such as the Non-Professional Furnished Rental (LMNP) status, which grants significant tax benefits.
Life insurance is another option: after eight years, it comes with reduced taxation and serves as a strategic wealth transfer tool.
SME investments or tax-advantaged funds like FIP and FCPI can offer tax reductions of up to 25% of your investment, 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 maximum tax reduction.
What should I do in case of a tax audit?
The initial step is to carefully analyze the request from the tax authorities to determine which documents are required and which period is concerned.
A well-prepared response relies on the provision of justifying paperwork, such as bills, bank statements, or contracts, to demonstrate the compliance of your tax declaration.
It is vital to meet the deadlines, as failure to respond within the given timeframe may trigger penalties.
Generally, the tax administration offers thirty days to respond to the request.
To minimize mistakes that could increase the risk of sanctions, it is strongly advised to work with a tax advisor, like us.
If errors or omissions are detected, friendly settlements are available.
Discussions may help lessen financial consequences and resolve the issue under the most favorable terms.
With our experience and certification with French fiscal institutions, we provide a rigorous and secure management of these procedures, so you can feel confident 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 serve different functions depending on the situation.
A tax advisor, like French Tax Online, assists private clients and companies in minimizing their tax burden.
Their skills helps decrease taxes in compliance with the law, ensure accurate tax filings, and implement optimal tax planning.
Their approach is proactive, aiming to reduce the likelihood of tax disputes.
Conversely, a tax lawyer specializes in tax law, who primarily deals with contentious tax situations.
They are empowered to represent clients in court and manage litigation procedures.
Their role becomes indispensable when amicable solutions are no longer possible and judicial action is needed.
