"The big tax event in France is the annual income tax declaration, which takes place in the spring. Almost everyone who lives in France has to fill in an annual declaration, as will non-residents will also have to if they have an income in France. Income tax bills are then sent over the summer. Anyone who owns property in France is also liable for property taxes. The bills for those arrive in the late summer and early autumn."
"The online platform to submit your annual income tax declaration opens. You will have six to eight weeks in which to submit your tax declaration online. For anyone filing paper returns, the physical document will be sent out from around April 6th. In recent years, France has moved to a pay as you earn' system, meaning employees' taxes are taken out of their monthly wage packets,"
France's 2026 tax calendar centers on the annual income tax declaration in spring. Almost all residents and non-residents with French-source income must file. Online declarations open on April 9, with paper forms dispatched from around April 6. Filing windows span six to eight weeks with departmental deadlines from May 19 to June 4 depending on method and location. The country uses a pay-as-you-earn withholding system but still requires an annual declaration and can generate rebates. Declarations record eligible tax breaks such as hiring domestic help or charitable donations. Property tax bills are issued in late summer and early autumn. New residents arriving after January 1, 2026, need not file until 2027.
