Country financial analysis
The statutory corporate income tax rate in France is 25.83% (including social contribution payments). Revenues increased significantly in 2022 as sales volumes recovered to pre-pandemic levels. An increase in profits in 2022 resulted in higher corporate income tax accrued and paid in 2022. Tax losses can be carried forward indefinitely to offset part of the current year's profit.
