Joint Tax Liability of Spouses/Partners
20th Jan 2025
A change in the law makes it easier for ex-spouses/partners to obtain a discharge from the taxes owed by the couple.
In French law, spouses and couples in a civil partnership are jointly and severally liable for the payment of income tax, local rates and the wealth tax. The same is true in relation to the wealth tax (IFI) for those living in free union.
