FAQ: Fiscal representative in France — your questions answered
Answers to the most common questions about fiscal representation in France, VAT registration, CA3 filings, and compliance obligations.
A fiscal representative in France is an entity accredited by the French tax authority (DGFiP) that acts on behalf of a foreign company for all VAT-related obligations. The fiscal representative handles: obtaining an intra-community VAT number, verifying invoicing flows and tax documents, filing VAT returns (CA3), submitting Intrastat declarations, and managing all communications with the French tax administration.
Non-EU companies must appoint an accredited fiscal representative who bears joint and several liability (responsabilité solidaire) for VAT obligations. EU companies can appoint a tax agent (mandataire fiscal), who acts on their behalf but does not bear legal liability. Eurofiscalis provides both services depending on your situation.
VAT obligations arise from all commercial operations involving goods in France: imports, intra-community acquisitions, intra-community supplies, local B2B and B2C sales, and storage of goods on French territory. Our service ensures every transaction is correctly reported.
French VAT returns (CA3) are filed monthly, quarterly, or annually, depending on your turnover and activity type. We determine the most appropriate frequency with you and handle every filing deadline to keep you fully compliant.
Once all required documents are submitted to the SIEE de Noisy-le-Grand (the office handling foreign company registrations), it takes approximately 40 business days to obtain your French VAT number (FR).
Import VAT deferral (autoliquidation de la TVA à l'importation) allows VAT-registered companies to report import VAT directly on their CA3 return instead of paying it at the border. Since January 2022, France has generalised this mechanism for all companies holding a French VAT number — significantly improving cash flow for importers.
Typically required documents include: certificate of incorporation, articles of association, proof of VAT registration in your home country, a signed fiscal representation mandate, and a bank guarantee (for non-EU companies). We guide you through every step and prepare the complete file for the DGFiP.
