Email or call tax offices in France – don’t visit
People should not visit their local tax offices in France during the Covid-19 crisis, the government has said in a statement.
Most of the procedures can be carried online (https://www.impots.gouv.fr/portail/particulier) and the deadline for declarations has been deferred both for online and the printed forms.
This is also the case for people living outside of France who are declaring French-sourced income. Find the new dates here.
If you have tax questions, you can ask via your online space or by calling tax office advisers on 0809 401 401.
A telephone appointment is also possible "in case of emergency" and "on-site reception is only possible in case of absolute necessity and only by appointment".
