Article 155 B of the French tax Code provides a favorable tax regime for employees and managers called from abroad to have a job in a company established in France for a limited time period, if they have not been tax domiciled in France during the 5 civil years preceding the beginning of their new functions.

The French tax administration has amended its official position by now stating that the persons who have, from abroad, applied to a position to have functions in a company established in France, will be considered as being directly called from abroad by a French company established in France. This change is subsequent to a public consultation of the update of the administrative comments and a decision of the Administrative Court of Appeal of Paris of 10 June 2022 #20PA02279.
