Virtual CFO Services in France
We help you see cash crunches 90 days out and make decisions with confidence. Delivered to Plan Comptable Général (PCG) for French businesses, priced in EUR.
Impôt sur les sociétés is paid in instalments on 15 March, 15 June, 15 September and 15 December, while the liasse fiscale that finally settles the year is not filed until early May. A French virtual CFO forecasts taxable profit against those four dates, models the TVA cash cycle, and builds management reporting on top of a chart of accounts designed for statutory filing, not for decisions.
Senior financial leadership without the senior salary. We build your KPI dashboard, run rolling cash-flow forecasts, and sit with you every month to translate the numbers into decisions — pricing, hiring, runway, and growth.
The deadlines we track against your ledger.
| Obligation | Frequency | Due | Authority |
|---|---|---|---|
| Impôt sur les sociétés instalments | Quarterly | 15 March, 15 June, 15 September, 15 December | DGFiP |
| Liasse fiscale (annual accounts and tax package) | Annual | Second business day after 1 May for companies with a 31 December year end | DGFiP |
Last reviewed against the source . These are the standard dates. Extensions through a registered agent, a non-calendar year end, and volume-based filing frequencies all shift them — confirm your own dates with DGFiP. This is general information, not tax advice.

France requires a certified, tamper-evident accounting system, and e-invoicing reform is progressively making structured invoice exchange mandatory — so the software choice is a compliance decision, not just preference.
A worked example, in your currency.
A Paris digital agency, 800 transactions a month, monthly TVA, 12 staff.
- In-house comptable (fully loaded, per month)
- 4 600 €
- Salt bookkeeping + TVA compliance
- 1 600 €
- Monthly saving
- 3 000 €
Figures in EUR. French employer social charges are a large share of fully loaded cost, which widens the gap against an outsourced team.
The framework your France accounts are held to.
We prepare to Plan Comptable Général (French GAAP). These are the bodies that set that framework and the authorities you file with — linked so you can verify the standard rather than take our word for it.
Listed for reference. Salt Accounting Group is not stating membership, registration or affiliation with any of these organisations. Where a filing must be lodged by a registered local agent, it is — your agent keeps the lodgement and the professional sign-off.
