FAQ: Tax Preparation Services
Who needs to file a tax return in France?
Every person residing in France for tax purposes, including in Champigny-sur-Marne, is obliged to report their earnings to the French tax administration. This includes salaried workers, freelancers, business owners, and retirees. Even if a taxpayer does not earn taxable income, filing a declaration may still be necessary to claim credits or exemptions or to stay compliant in case of subsequent audits.
Foreign nationals and expatriates must also file a tax return if they live primarily in France or engage in professional activities within the country. Likewise, property owners in France, regardless of their residence status, are required to file a return for any earnings from rented property.
What are the deadlines and penalties for late filing?
Each year, the tax authorities in France sets specific filing dates for income tax returns, generally ranging from mid-May and early June, depending on the taxpayer’s department and filing method (physical or digital).

As certified experts, we use specialized tax software that enables us to prepare your tax return as early as January 1st. To ensure accuracy, improve your fiscal position, and avoid last-minute stress, we recommend contacting us as early as possible.
Missing the official deadlines may result in penalties, making early preparation even more crucial.
A delayed filing leads to an additional surcharge: a 10% surcharge applies if no formal notice is issued, which can rise to 40% if the French tax office officially issues a notice. Interest on overdue tax of 0.20% per month is also added to the amount due. If the failure is considered willful or malicious, severe sanctions may be applied.
How can I legally reduce my income tax?
There are several legal strategies to lower your tax bill in France. Investing in real estate is an effective way to optimize taxation, particularly through the Non-Professional Furnished Rental (LMNP), which provides attractive tax benefits.
Other ways to save on taxes include the Malraux law, which grants major tax relief for the renovation of classified structures; the landlord renovation deduction, which helps reduce taxable income through renovation deductions; and the Historic Monuments program, offering important tax relief for the preservation of protected properties.
French assurance-vie is another advantageous option: after a holding period of 8 years, it benefits from a reduced tax rate, making it an excellent tool for transferring assets and minimizing taxes.
SME investment or fiscally supported funds like FIP and FCPI can also offer a tax reduction of up to 25% of the eligible investment, depending on compliance with criteria.
This is only a snapshot! Our experts are here to guide you to find the best fiscal strategies for greater efficiency.
How to file your tax return online?
The online tax declaration system is the recommended approach of the French tax administration, managed on the official government website impots.gouv.fr portal.
However, as authorized tax advisors, we streamline the procedure for our clients. Instead of using their online portal, they simply complete 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 secure EDI connection, guaranteeing correctness, legal conformity, and reliability—without requiring clients to log in to impots.gouv.fr.
After submission, the tax administration determines what is payable or refundable or any eligible reimbursement.
