The portfolio of clients we support consists of structures with sales of less than \u20ac8 million in our territory, and for which the tax rate (in 2020) will be :<\/p>

  • 15% up to 38 K euros of pre-tax income<\/li>
  • 28% beyond<\/li><\/ul>

    The condition for benefiting from these rates is to have more than 75% of the share capital owned by natural persons, at the level of the French structure or even at the level of a structure in the world owning the French structure.<\/p>

    If this condition is not fulfilled or if the entity in France is not a subsidiary but a branch, the rates become\u00a0:<\/p>

    • 28% up to 500 K euros of pre-tax income<\/li>
    • 31% above<\/li><\/ul>

      Corporate tax is payable by four quarterly instalments plus one balance.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

      Let us remind that France being a member of the EU European Union, the European VAT rules apply for the supply of goods, services, international transactions and exceptions on certain products or services.<\/p>

      The normal rate is 20% in France. Reduced rates exist on certain products, services, destinations: 10%, 5.5%, 2.1%, etc.<\/p>

      Normally, VAT is paid monthly (but it is possible to pay quarterly or annually if certain thresholds are not reached).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

      The CET is a right to have an economic activity, calculated partly on a property value (CFE tax) and partly on the value added produced (CVAE tax). A minimum Business Tax is decided according to the municipality of location and usually amounts to 400 euros.<\/p>

      The CET is also payable by 3 instalments then balances.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

      The 5 OECD methods are accepted in France\u00a0:<\/p>

      The preferential method is that of the Comparable Price (Price at which the French subsidiary would purchase from a third-party supplier, or price at which the mother\/sister would sell to a third party);<\/p>

      The Resale Price method consists in leaving the French subsidiary a margin on resale to the end customer, comparable to the margins applied at arm\u2019s length;<\/p>

      The Cost Plus (cost+) method makes it possible to re-invoice to the mother all the operating costs of the French subsidiary, plus a mark-up;<\/p>

      The Profit Sharing method implies a sharing of the overall margin (end-customer selling price, less cost of products at source), in the case of joint operations within the Group and indissociable;<\/p>

      The Net Margin method, one of the most widely used in France, assumes that the Group companies charge France in such a way that France can have a comparable operating result to a competing distributor.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
