European Court of Justice ruling – CSG and CRDS on real estate income in France

An important ruling (C-690/15) has just been handed down concerning tax protection for agents of European and international organizations with real estate income in France. The European Court has confirmed that its ruling in case C-623/13 also applies to civil servants, agents and pensioners of European institutions, and that France cannot therefore tax their property income under the CSG (contribution sociale généralisée) and CRDS (Contribution pour le remboursement de la dette sociale). A procedure for repayment of the sums wrongly deducted will have to be initiated.
