Paying tax in cash

Recommended Posts

This may sound like a silly question. I have arranged to pay my Fonciere directly at the local Tresorie, however on the bill, they have specified payment by bank cheque (if attending in person). Does this mean that they do not accept cash? The reason I ask is that I am awaiting a new cheque book, and have to pay in cash before the 15th Oct deadline.

All I willl say is beware.  The local tresor took a cheque, gave us a receipt and then claimed we had not paid and denied that their receipt was valid.  Long wrangle to avoid extra charges.  If we had paid cash it could have been much worse.

I have paid all my bills in cash since 2005, I doubt that they have sufficient imagination around here to suspect money laundering.

Yes, you are perfectly correct. I have just been to the Tresorie and paid in cash. Not even a second glance and the cash was put in the cash drawer with all the rest of the taxes which appear to have been paid in cash today (last day before deadline).
