After I have settled into my apartment, what are my continuing obligations?

Property owners who spend less than 184 days a year in France and do not pay income taxes in France are considered “non-resident.”

Non-resident owners are expected to:

  • pay property taxes (“taxe foncière”)
  • pay occupancy taxes (“taxe d’habitation”), unless you have a long-term renter in the property, in which case this tax is their responsibility
  • pay income tax on any income deriving from activities in France (including rental income from the property)
