What the estimate covers

  • Income tax: 19%, fully exempt after 22 years of ownership.
  • Social levies: 17.2%, or a 7.5% solidarity levy for non-residents affiliated to an EEA or Swiss social security scheme. Fully exempt after 30 years.
  • Surtax on large gains: 2% to 6% above 50,000 € of taxable gain.
  • Optional allowances: 7.5% for acquisition costs, 15% for works after 5 years of ownership.

Non-residents: key points

An accredited tax representative may be required above a 150,000 € sale price for sellers outside the EEA. A specific non-resident exemption may apply under conditions. The main-home exemption generally does not apply to non-residents. Indicative estimate to be validated: we point you to a partner notary.
