Tax Deductions

Your gift is tax-deductible up to 66%, within the limit of 20% of taxable income. If the amount is over this limit, the amount must be reported over the next five years (Article 200 of Code des Impôts). If you are subject to the Real estate wealth tax (IFI), you can benefit from a tax deduction of up to 75% if your donation is up to €50,000 (with a cap on gifts of €66,666).
