  • RE: Double Taxation Relief UK-France

    To HMRC admin 5 Article 2, section 1, subsection (b) parts (i) income tax, (v) the contributions social generàlisees (VI) contributions pour le remboursement pour le dette social ( herein referred to as taxes ) are included in the treaty and therefore no charges should be applied to by Impôts.
  • RE: Double Taxation Relief UK-France

    HMRC admin 25. You have misunderstood or misread my question. I am not employed in France, I am not legible for UK state pension until June 2025. I have a UK Government Pension ( Police) which for the first time after 11 years in France, I am being charged for social & health charges which I understand is exempt as these are considered as tax charges within the double taxation agreement.
  • RE: Double Taxation Relief UK-France

    . Been resident in France for 11 years and never had a problem until this year when I hit the French retirement age. Im not entitled to S1 until I reach UK retirement age in 2025. That is irrelevant as my Government Pension is covered under double tax agreement and should not be subject to any tax implementation here in France. My question was what proof can HMRC provide me that I am exempt from social charges because of my Government pension. Thank you for your input.
  • RE: Double Taxation Relief UK-France

    I am in receipt of UK Government Pension ( Police) as my only source of income in France. In 2025, I shall reach UK pensionable age and entitled to form S1. Up until now, I have not been required to pay for social care on my pension. This year though, I have received a prevelement to cover cost of health care.I do have top mutuelle assurance. Impots are instant on me paying this social charge despite my argument that UK Govt pension is exempt from tax social charges despite showing evidence of the Double tax agreement both in English and French. What proof that I am exempt from social charges can HMRC provide for me to show the French tax authorities ?
