Is any tax payable on gift of French holiday home? My father, a UK resident, bought a French holiday home in 1998 for 60,000FF. He formally gifted it to me in 2006. My siblings received gifts in the UK to compensate. My father held no other assets in France. He died this year. Does his estate owe any taxes in France in relation to this gift? R.H.
I live in France but received a donation from the UK If a family member in the UK wishes to give me money, would that be taxed? I would use it to pay some of my French mortgage. B.R.
Effect of donation-partage on CGT in France Some time before a UK resident sells a holiday home in France they may have made a donation-partage to their children (a legal procedure, sharing property among one’s children in one’s lifetime; for example giving them a legal right to a house, while retaining lifetime use). In some scenarios this might later have been revoked. How does this affect French capital gains tax and social taxes when it is sold? W.O.
