Purchasing French property always influences your tax situation, both in Belgium and in France. That's why we look into how best to structure the purchase of your own property. This specifically concerns the consequences for your income tax, VAT, property tax, inheritance tax and capital gains tax.
French accounting and VAT
Are you performing activities in France or leasing property? In that case, it might be you also have to do your own accounting there, or have VAT obligations. Those happen to be some of our specialities. We offer support when performing accounting, requesting or cancelling your French VAT number, and submitting VAT declarations.
Social representation in the event of secondment
Do you, as a Belgian company, temporarily post employees to France? If so, it is best to take into account a number of important formal obligations.

In addition, there are mandatory provisions of French labour law to respect. Our team will be happy to support you in complying with your obligations.
