Online discussion with French Tax authorities on Legal Certainty in Taxation and Transfer Pricing
2025-03-19 10:00 - 11:30 (America/Chicago) | Virtual
Online Roundtable Discussion with French tax authorities
Wednesday, March 19th, 2025
5:00 PM – 6:30 PM CET (Paris)
11:00 AM – 12:30 PM EST (New York)
8:00 AM – 9:30 AM PST (Los Angeles)
“Legal Certainty in Taxation and Transfer Pricing: How to Develop a Constructive Relationship with French Tax Authorities”
Tax rules, particularly in terms of international taxation, can be complex. However, French tax authorities offer solutions to help secure tax positions of groups present in France. By fostering a long-term relationship with the administration, groups can address tax issues related to their specific activities and exceptional transactions.
This is particularly important for groups looking to develop their activities in France. The administration can ensure more certainty by securing the tax treatment for projects and validating transfer pricing methods for international transactions between the United States and France.
To support businesses, specialized departments within the French tax administration now offer streamlined processes adapted to the transactions involved and the objectives of international groups.
These services are designed to:

Provide tax certainty for investment projects
Secure tax treatment applicable to investment projects
Limit the burden of tax audits
Eliminate double taxation

The European American Chamber of Commerce (EACC) invites you to a videoconference, featuring senior officials from these programs within the French tax administration.
Participants will have the opportunity to:

Discuss the best ways to manage their relationship with French tax authorities
Exchange best practices
Gain insights on how to create a sustainable connection with various departments.

With the Participation of:
Direction Générale des Finances Publiques – Corporate Partner Service Candice Jalton, Head of “Tax For Business France” T4B

Direction Générale des Finances Publiques – French APA & MAP Department Imtiaz Mohammed Manager of MAP & APA 1st Unit
