FAQ: Tax Preparation Services
Who needs to file a tax return in France?
Anyone who is a tax resident in France, whether in Saint-Pierre or elsewhere, is legally bound to file an income tax return to the tax authorities. This concerns employees, self-employed professionals, business owners, and pensioners. Even if a taxpayer falls below the taxable threshold, they may still need to file a return to claim credits or exemptions or to stay compliant in case of subsequent audits.
Expats and foreign residents must also report their earnings if they are fiscally domiciled in France or carry out business within the country. Similarly, those who own property in France, regardless of their residence status, are subject to declaration obligations for any earnings from rented property.
What are the deadlines and penalties for late filing?
Each year, the tax authorities in France establishes specific deadlines for annual tax declarations, generally ranging from mid-May and early June, depending on the taxpayer’s department and submission channel (physical or digital).

As registered tax advisors, we use specialized tax software that enables us to process your tax return as early as January 1st. To avoid mistakes, improve your fiscal position, and avoid last-minute stress, we suggest getting in touch as early as possible.
Not complying with the official filing limits may trigger late fees, making early preparation even more crucial.
A missed deadline leads to an additional surcharge: a 10% penalty applies if no official reminder is issued, increasing up to 40% if the French tax office officially alerts you. Interest on overdue tax of 0.20% per month is also charged on the outstanding sum. 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 reduce your income tax in France. Investing in real estate is an effective way to enhance your tax situation, particularly through the LMNP regime, which provides attractive tax benefits.
Other ways to save on taxes include the Malraux program, which grants significant tax reductions for the renovation of classified structures; the property deficit scheme, which allows landlords to deduct renovation costs; and the Historic Monuments program, offering substantial tax advantages for the preservation of classified heritage buildings.
A life insurance policy is another tax-efficient tool: after a holding period of 8 years, it benefits from a reduced tax rate, making it an smart option for transferring assets and tax optimization.
SME investment or tax-incentivized funds like FIP/FCPI structures can also lead to a tax reduction of up to 25% of the eligible investment, depending on compliance with criteria.
There are many more possibilities! Our advisors are here to help you identify the best tax-saving opportunities for maximum tax reduction.
How to file your tax return online?
The digital filing platform is the recommended approach of the French tax authorities, managed on the official government website impots.gouv.fr.
However, as authorized tax advisors, we streamline the procedure for our clients. Instead of logging into their individual space, they simply fill out a custom form on our website.
Once the information is entered, we manage the full tax submission and submit it directly to the tax authorities via EDI (Electronic Data Interchange), guaranteeing correctness, compliance, and speed—without any need for clients to access impots.gouv.fr.
After submission, the tax administration assesses the amount of tax owed or any potential refund.
