    FAQ: Tax Preparation Services

    Who needs to file a tax return in France?

    All individuals considered tax residents in France, including in Courbevoie, is obliged to report their earnings to the fiscal authorities. This includes employees, self-employed professionals, business owners, and retirees. Even if a taxpayer falls below the taxable threshold, they may still need to file a return to benefit from fiscal advantages or to stay compliant in case of subsequent audits.

    Non-French citizens living in France must also report their earnings if they live primarily in France or carry out business within the country. Similarly, those who own property 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 French tax office sets specific submission timelines for annual tax declarations, generally scheduled between mid-May and early June, depending on the place of residence and filing method (paper or online).

    As certified experts, we have access to specialized tax software that enables us to prepare your tax return as early as January 1st. To guarantee precision, maximize your tax benefits, and avoid last-minute stress, we suggest getting in touch as early as possible.

    Not complying with the official deadlines may trigger late fees, making early preparation even more important.

    A late tax return leads to an additional tax penalty: a 10% penalty applies if no official reminder is issued, going as high as 40% if the tax authorities officially issues a notice. Penalties for late payment of 0.20% per month is also applied to the balance. If the failure is considered willful or fraudulent, severe sanctions may be enforced.

    How can I legally reduce my income tax?

    Other ways to save on taxes include the Malraux law, which provides major tax relief for the renovation of heritage buildings; the landlord renovation deduction, which lets property owners subtract works expenses; and the Historic Monuments program, offering notable benefits for the conservation of protected properties.

    French assurance-vie is another tax-efficient tool: after 8 years, it is subject to favorable tax treatment, making it an excellent tool for transferring assets and fiscal planning.

    SME investment or tax-advantaged vehicles like investment funds with tax perks can also lead to a tax reduction of up to 25% of the invested amount, under certain requirements.

    These are just a few examples! Our advisors are here to recommend the best fiscal strategies for greater efficiency.
