How will my financial investments in France be taxed when I move abroad? As soon as you settle abroad, check with the local tax authority to find out if you have filing and/or payment obligations in your country of residence, even if you pay taxes in France. Please note : on 1 January 2018, the property wealth tax (IFI) replaced the wealth tax (ISF). This means that only property assets comprising property and property rights located in France, shares or stock in property companies holding property in France and shares or stock in property companies holding property in France and abroad now have to be declared. Subject to international tax treaties, you owe wealth tax in France for years prior to 2018.  

Tax4BusinessFrance service is a one-stop contact point for all foreign investor’s tax issues. It accommodates your needs and guides you so you can invest within a clear and safe legal environment (tax4business@dgfip.finances.gouv.fr).

Your taxes will be calculated using the progressive income tax scale and factoring in income splitting (quotient familial).
