GOOD TO KNOW
Dividend taxation in France for those residing outside France for tax purposes(for non-residents of France)
A statutory rate equal to at least 12.8% is withheld upon dividend payment by your account manager (Air Liquide for direct registered shares, your financial institution for intermediary registered or bearer shares).
However, in most cases, a tax agreement(3) is signed between France and your country of residence. The main aim of this agreement is to set a flat tax rate which is withheld from your dividends. If the tax value of the tax agreement is below 12.8%, to benefit from this rate, you must send the Cerfa Form 5000 (corresponding to the request to apply the rate adopted in the agreement), completed and signed by the tax authorities of your place of residence, to your account manager by mid-April. This Cerfa form can be downloaded from impots.gouv.fr. It must be resent to your account manager.
