FAQ: Tax Preparation Services
Who needs to file a tax return in France?
All individuals considered tax residents in France, including in Argenteuil, is required to declare their income to the fiscal authorities. This concerns employees, freelancers, business owners, and retirees. Even if a taxpayer does not earn taxable income, they may still need to file a return to access certain tax benefits or to avoid penalties in case of future regularization.
Non-French citizens living in France must also declare their income if they live primarily in France or carry out business within the country. Similarly, property owners in France, whether residents or non-residents, are subject to declaration obligations for any rental income received.
What are the deadlines and penalties for late filing?
Each year, the French tax office sets specific filing dates for income tax returns, generally falling between mid-May and early June, depending on the département and submission channel (paper or online).

As registered tax advisors, we rely on specialized tax software that enables us to prepare your tax return as early as January 1st. To guarantee precision, improve your fiscal position, and reduce time pressure, we advise you to reach out as early as possible.
Missing the official filing limits may lead to fines, making early preparation even more important.
A missed deadline leads to an additional fine: a 10% increase applies if no official reminder is issued, going as high as 40% if the fiscal administration officially issues a notice. Late payment interest of 0.20% per month is also charged on the outstanding sum. If the error is found to be deliberate or dishonest, higher penalties may be imposed.
How can I legally reduce my income tax?
There are several compliant approaches to reduce your income tax in France. Real estate investment is an efficient way to enhance your tax situation, particularly through the furnished rental scheme for non-professionals, which provides significant tax advantages.
Other ways to save on taxes include the Malraux law, which offers major tax relief for the restoration of classified structures; the déficit foncier mechanism, which lets property owners subtract works expenses; and the Historic Monuments program, offering substantial tax advantages for the conservation of protected properties.
A life insurance policy is another advantageous option: after a holding period of 8 years, it is subject to favorable tax treatment, making it an excellent tool for wealth transfer and minimizing taxes.
Investing in SMEs or fiscally supported funds like investment funds with tax perks can also lead to a tax reduction of up to 25% of the eligible investment, subject to conditions.
These are just a few examples! Our experts are here to recommend the best fiscal strategies for greater efficiency.
How to file your tax return online?
The online tax declaration system is the preferred method of the fiscal authorities in France, processed through the official government website impots.gouv.fr portal.
However, as accredited professionals, we streamline the procedure for our clients. Instead of using their individual space, they simply submit a custom form on our website.
Once the information is provided, we handle the entire declaration process and submit it directly to the tax authorities via EDI (Electronic Data Interchange), ensuring accuracy, adherence to rules, and speed—without requiring clients to log in to impots.gouv.fr.
After submission, the tax administration calculates the final tax due or any overpayment.
