France is changing the way income tax is collected.
From January 1st 2019, France will operate a pay-as-you-earn (PAYE) system.
Currently, French tax residents file an annual income tax return and pay their income tax the year after the income was received. This is done through a one-off payment, three monthly payments or ten monthly payments based on the previous year’s taxes.
