From 2021, entities subject to the French 3% on real estate tax will have to submit their tax returns in a dematerialised way. In order to file the French 3% tax return on time (i.e. no later than 15 May 2021) electronically, the French tax administration has just, at the beginning of January, announced that foreign entities will have to be registered in France before 15 January 2021.
The registration process needs to be started as soon as possible in order to (i) comply with the deadline communicated by the French tax administration, (ii) have the necessary time to solve any potential problems encountered with this registration and (iii) be ready to proceed with the electronic filing of the 3% tax return no later than 15 May 2021.
