Assistance with regularizing your tax situation
Regularizing a tax situation is a delicate and complex process, which can occur following the omission or concealment of real estate assets subject to the Wealth Real Estate Tax (IFI) or undeclared foreign bank accounts, among others. It is essential to regularize one's situation in full compliance with tax legislation, in order to avoid financial sanctions, penalties, or criminal proceedings.
Our firm, specializing in tax law and tax litigation, assists its clients in regularizing their real estate assets in France or abroad, as well as in declaring their undeclared foreign bank accounts to the tax authorities, within the framework of existing legal provisions.
Our areas of intervention
1- Regularization of the Wealth Real Estate Tax (IFI)
The IFI is a French tax that concerns individuals owning real estate assets exceeding 1.3 million euros. If you have omitted to declare all or part of your real estate assets, we will assist you in regularizing your tax situation by following these steps:
- Comprehensive analysis of your real estate assets, identifying assets subject to IFI and evaluating their value;
- Review of previous declarations and identification of any omissions or errors in the IFI declaration;
- Voluntary regularization with the tax authorities;
- Negotiation with the tax authorities to avoid penalties;
- Request for remission or reduction of penalties.
2- Regularization of undeclared foreign bank accounts
Undeclared foreign bank accounts are a particularly sensitive issue, which can lead to heavy tax and criminal sanctions in case of non-declaration or insufficient declaration. Our firm assists you in regularizing your foreign bank accounts, particularly through the following steps:
- Analysis of foreign bank accounts and evaluation of the sums involved;
- Voluntary regularization through the "foreign bank account regularization" procedure;
- Filing the declaration with the tax services;
- Request for amnesty or reduction of sanctions;
- Assistance during exchanges with the tax authorities and preparation for potential further audits or checks.
3- Regularization and tax defense strategy
In such a complex context, an effective regularization strategy relies on several key elements:
- Consideration of the financial and asset risks associated with the regularization of real estate and foreign bank accounts;
- Identification of solutions to minimize the tax impacts of regularization (reduction of penalties, optimization of the declaration);
- Establishment of solid arguments to advocate for an amicable regularization and a reduction of tax sanctions.

Our firm offers tailored support throughout the regularization process, particularly for:
