    FAQ: Tax Preparation Services

    Who needs to file a tax return in France?

    Every person residing in France for tax purposes, including in Mulhouse, is obliged to report their earnings to the fiscal authorities. This applies to employees, freelancers, business owners, and pensioners. Even if a taxpayer falls below the taxable threshold, a declaration might be required to access certain tax benefits or to stay compliant in case of later tax adjustments.

    Non-French citizens living in France must also declare their income if they have their primary residence in France or work within the country. In the same way, property owners in France, regardless of their residence status, are legally obliged to declare for any income generated from rentals.

    What are the deadlines and penalties for late filing?

    Each year, the tax authorities in France publishes specific submission timelines for income tax returns, generally ranging from mid-May and early June, depending on the place of residence and filing method (by post or electronically).

    As accredited professionals, we use specialized tax software that enables us to start working on your tax return as early as January 1st. To guarantee precision, maximize your tax benefits, and reduce time pressure, we recommend contacting us as early as possible.

    Failure to meet the official filing limits may lead to fines, making early preparation even more essential.

    A delayed filing leads to an additional tax penalty: a 10% increase applies if no notification is issued, increasing up to 40% if the tax authorities officially issues a notice. Late payment interest of 0.20% per month is also applied to the balance. If the omission is deemed intentional or dishonest, higher penalties may be enforced.

    How can I legally reduce my income tax?

    There are several legal strategies to lower your tax bill in France. Property investment is an reliable way to enhance your tax situation, particularly through the Non-Professional Furnished Rental (LMNP), which grants attractive tax benefits.

    Other fiscal tools include the Malraux scheme, which grants strong incentives for the renovation of heritage buildings; the property deficit scheme, which allows landlords to deduct renovation costs; and the MH regime, offering substantial tax advantages for the conservation of protected properties.

    French assurance-vie is another advantageous option: after a holding period of 8 years, it enjoys lower taxation, making it an great strategy for transferring assets and fiscal planning.

    Investing in SMEs or fiscally supported funds like investment funds with tax perks can also offer a tax reduction of up to 25% of the qualified contribution, under certain requirements.

    These are just a few examples! Our experts are here to recommend the best fiscal strategies for minimizing your liabilities.

    How to file your tax return online?

    The digital filing platform is the recommended approach of the French tax authorities, available via the official government website impots.gouv.fr portal.

    However, as authorized tax advisors, we make things easier for our clients. Instead of using their online portal, they simply submit a specific questionnaire on our website.

    Once the information is provided, we take care of the full filing and file it electronically to the tax authorities via the EDI system, guaranteeing correctness, compliance, and efficiency—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.
