You may be able to obtain a copy if you send an e-mail and ask, (you can write the letter in English if you wish) to: [email protected] (They will reply to any French fiscal problems you may have, in English) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derf Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 This may be of some use also, the official exchange rate for converting your income for the 2004 tax year.1€ = 0.70505 £1£ = 1.41834 € Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LesLauriers Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 Thank you very much Les! This rate reduces my tax bill as I had been working on the average rate obtainable throughout the year which is closer to 1.47€.So yes very useful and thank you!

Jackie Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 Hear hear to that suggestion Les. I also emailed them and got this reply: The official rate is 1 pound = 1,41834 euros Sorry, It is not possible to send forms or explanatory leaflets in English, they don't exist. Contrôleur des Impôts It would help many I think Les.................JohnPS They must have been buried in emails requesting info The wires to their computer must have been red-hot!

IAN_S Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 This may be a bit late now, but for anyone who comes under Limoux, Aude, there is a M. Lacoste (his real name!) who will for the first year at least, fill in tax forms for you given all the information and is generally very helpful.We have friends who went to see him personally and we have done this by mail. As long as he has opened a file by 4 April there is no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
