We analyze your flow of goods and your invoicing to determine if your company is required to register for VAT in France. We then compile your VAT application file and submit it to the relevant French tax authorities.
We remain responsible for all communication with the tax authorities throughout our mission, and we help you comply with requests from the tax administration and in the event of an audit.<\/p>\n\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\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Using the information and accounting data which we have received from you, we thoroughly inspect all your operations and invoices. We then prepare the VAT declaration and VAT payment.
We have also developed our own proprietary software for managing distance selling, so that we can accurately monitor whether national VAT thresholds have been exceeded in each EU country.<\/p>\n\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\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Are you involved in the exchange of goods and services between European countries? Do you provide services to companies located in other EU member states?
If this is the case, you are required to prepare a declaration on the exchange of goods (DEB) or a declaration on the exchange of services (DES) and to respond to Monthly Statistical Survey on Intra-European Union Trade in Goods (EMEBI) for the French customs.
We take care of your DEB, DES and EMEBI.<\/p>\n\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\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

    The expenditures listed in your VAT refund claim must be necessary for your business activity and must not be legally excluded from the right to a deduction. The primary exclusions from the right to a deduction affect:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • housing or lodging expenses incurred by your company for the benefit of its management and employees; however, if these expenses are incurred for the benefit of third parties, they may be admitted on certain conditions<\/li>\n
    • expenses for passenger vehicles and related services<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      • provide complete and accurate bank details to be used for receiving the refund<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Finally, you are required to appoint a tax representative who must be liable for VAT, established in France, and accredited by the tax administration. You must also enclose a power of attorney signed by your company and its representative authorizing the representative to submit claims on your behalf.<\/p>\n
