The 2025 tax calendar is official. Here is when you have to declare your income to the taxman and what are the limits by department.
THE taxesit’s coming soon! He will soon be the time to make his income tax return to the taxman for 40 million French people. As every year, it is therefore around spring that taxpayers are called upon to fill out the traditional form. The income and certain expenses of the year 2024 will be registered, even if part of the elements will already be pre-filled by the administration. Once the approach is completed, a first document will be sent to you indicating whether you still have to get money from taxes, in addition to the withholding tax, or if a refund will be made.
However, we do not fill out with his declaration when we see fit. The Directorate General of Public Finances (DGFIP) has established a specific calendar that everyone must respect under penalty of fine. Here are the dates to know.
The date of opening of the tax declaration is set for Thursday 10 April 2025. This date was confirmed by Bercy. This year, this year, the first date to remember this year from which all taxpayers can start to fill their income tax. They will then have a few weeks to finalize it and send it to the DGFIP.
Taxes have also already communicated on the deadlines to complete its income tax return. They are fixed at Thursday May 22 For departments 1 to 19, at Wednesday May 28 for those ranging from 20 to 54, then to Thursday June 5 For all the others. Furthermore, the deadline is set at Thursday May 22 For non-residents in France.
About 10 million French people still fill their taxes in paper version. But beware, the deadline to send documents to the taxman is not the same as for taxpayers who declare online. The paper version must be posted no later than a few days before the first deadline of the online declaration. The exact date has been communicated: it is set at Tuesday, May 20 at 11:59 p.m., whatever the department.
