Limited tax agent in France – customs procedure 42

WHO NEEDS TO APPOINT A LIMITED TAX AGENT IN FRANCE?

As a rule, companies established in the EU performing transactions subject to VAT on the French territory have the obligation to register for VAT in France.

However, companies established in the EU performing, in France, importations under customs procedure 42 that are immediately followed by intra-community supplies to other EU member States can be exempt from registering for VAT in France by appointing a limited tax agent.

Nota bene:

WHY USE CUSTOMS PROCEDURE 42?

Customs procedure 42 enables companies to import goods without paying import VAT in France and to resell them to taxable persons in a different EU member State with a VAT exemption.

By using customs procedure 42, companies can avoid paying import VAT and invoice their clients without VAT. This represents a substantial competitive advantage.

WHY APPOINT A LIMITED TAX AGENT IN FRANCE?

Thanks to the appointment of a limited tax agent, importations following customs procedure 42 and subsequent intra-community supplies will be performed using the limited tax agent’s VAT number. Consequently, said transactions will be declared in the limited fiscal representative’s VAT return and DEB/Intrastat declaration.

In consequence, the company will avoid extra costs and formalities arising from the obtention of a VAT number and from the submission of VAT returns and DEB/Intrastat declarations.
