FAQ: Tax Preparation Services
Who needs to file a tax return in France?
Anyone who is a tax resident in France, including in Drancy, is obliged to report their earnings to the French tax administration. This concerns salaried workers, freelancers, entrepreneurs, and pensioners. Even if a taxpayer falls below the taxable threshold, they may still need to file a return to access certain tax benefits or to prevent fines in case of future regularization.
Foreign nationals and expatriates must also declare their income if they are fiscally domiciled in France or carry out business within the country. In the same way, those who own property in France, whether residents or non-residents, are legally obliged to declare 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 income tax returns, generally ranging from mid-May and early June, depending on the taxpayer’s department and how the return is submitted (physical or digital).
! 2025 tax calendar not yet available !
As certified experts, we rely on specialized tax software that lets us start working on your tax return as early as January 1st. To ensure accuracy, optimize your tax situation, and avoid last-minute stress, we suggest getting in touch as early as possible.
Missing the official deadlines may lead to fines, making early preparation even more crucial.
A missed deadline leads to an additional surcharge: a 10% increase applies if no official reminder is issued, increasing up to 40% if the tax authorities officially alerts you. Interest on overdue tax of 0.20% per month is also applied to the balance. If the failure is considered willful or malicious, more serious consequences may be applied.
How can I legally reduce my income tax?
There are several legal strategies to minimize taxation in France. Property investment is an reliable way to enhance your tax situation, particularly through the LMNP regime, which grants significant tax advantages.
Other tax-efficient strategies include the Malraux scheme, which provides major tax relief for the rehabilitation of heritage buildings; the déficit foncier mechanism, which allows landlords to deduct renovation costs; and the Historic Monuments program, offering important tax relief for the maintenance of protected properties.
Life insurance is another tax-efficient tool: after eight years, it is subject to favorable tax treatment, making it an smart option for estate planning and tax optimization.
SME investment or fiscally supported funds like investment funds with tax perks can also provide a tax reduction of up to 25% of the invested amount, under certain requirements.
There are many more possibilities! Our consultants are here to guide you to find the best fiscal strategies for minimizing your liabilities.
How to file your tax return online?
The digital filing platform is the standard procedure of the French tax authorities, available via the official government website impots.gouv.fr.
However, as authorized tax advisors, we streamline the procedure for our clients. Instead of using their online portal, they simply submit a dedicated form on our website.
Once the information is provided, we manage the full tax submission and transmit it securely to the tax authorities via secure EDI connection, ensuring correctness, legal conformity, and speed—without requiring clients to log in to impots.gouv.fr.
After submission, the tax administration assesses the amount of tax owed or any potential refund.
