How can I legally reduce my income tax?
There are several legal ways to reduce your income tax in France.
Investing in property is a powerful tax optimization tool, thanks to tax schemes such as the LMNP status, which offers significant tax benefits.
Another powerful tool is life insurance: after eight years, it comes with reduced taxation and serves as a valuable wealth transfer tool.
Investing in SMEs or tax-incentivized investment funds (FIP and FCPI) can grant tax reductions of up to 25% of your investment, subject to eligibility.
And that’s just the beginning! Our tax experts can help you choose the best ways to optimize your tax situation for optimal savings.
What should I do in case of a tax audit?
The initial step is to review in detail the request from the tax authorities to determine which documents are required and which period is concerned.
A accurate response relies on the submission of strong supporting documents, such as bills, bank statements, or agreements, to prove the accuracy of your tax declaration.
It is crucial to meet the deadlines, as delays may trigger sanctions.
Generally, the tax administration provides thirty days to send in the necessary documents.
To avoid any errors that could complicate matters, it is strongly advised to consult a tax professional, like us.
If errors or omissions are found, friendly settlements exist.
Discussions may help minimize penalties and resolve the issue under the optimal terms.
With our experience and official recognition by French tax services, we ensure a thorough and safe management of these procedures, ensuring reassurance 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 focus on different aspects of taxation.
A tax consultant, such as French Tax Online, helps individuals and businesses in minimizing their tax burden.
Their skills helps legally reduce taxes, ensure accurate tax filings, and follow effective tax approaches.
Their approach is preventive, aiming to minimize audit risks.

They are qualified 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 judicial action is needed.
