5月7日,法国中间派独立候选人Emmanuel Macron当选法国总统,他曾承诺大幅削减企业和个人税收。
Macron在大选中获得了超过66%的选票,大幅度领先民族主义总统候选人Marine Le Pen。Le Pen曾提议对雇用非法国工人的公司加税。
在竞选过程中,Macron承诺将分别给企业和个人减税100亿欧元。
减税计划中包括,在未来五年间将企业所得税税率从现有的33.33%降至25%。这一减税规模将超出目前政府所批准的到2020年将所有企业税率降至28%。
此外,Macron还希望在财产税征税范围中去除投资收入,使得财产税能有效地针对高价值财产征税。Macron同时还希望提高环保税。
The Tax Proposals Of French President-Elect Macron
French centrist independent candidate Emmanuel Macron was elected to the presidency of France on May 7, after pledging significant tax cuts for businesses and individuals.
Macron won the contest by a comfortable margin, gaining more than 66 percent of the vote in the recent run-off election against nationalist candidate Marine Le Pen, who had proposed raising taxes on companies employing non-French workers.
On the campaign trail, Macron promised to cut taxes by EUR20bn (USD21.9bn), with the reductions divided equally between businesses and individuals.
The program includes a reduction in corporate tax to 25 percent from its existing level of 33.33 percent over five years. This would go beyond the cut to 28 percent for all firms by 2020 approved by the current Government.
In addition, Macron wants to remove investment income from the scope of the wealth tax, so that it effectively becomes a tax on high-value property, and raise environmental taxes.
