Pick the right channel
Most messages we receive fall into one of three buckets, and each bucket has its own handling path. Stating the right subject at the top of your email helps us route the message to the person who can actually answer it, rather than bouncing it through a generic inbox.
- Editorial correction. Something on the site is factually wrong, outdated, or misleading. Point us to the passage, tell us what you think should be there, and attach the source (a BOFiP link, an Article of the Code général des impôts, a recent notarial practice note). We update within five working days when the source is clear, and we flag the change inside the partner card if the correction affects a featured firm.
- Accreditation verification. You are about to engage a firm and want independent confirmation that its accreditation is current, in scope, and insured. Send the firm's legal name, SIREN number (if you have it), and the transaction type (real-estate CGT or VAT). We reply with what the regional DRFIP list actually says, not what the firm's website says.
- Partner enquiry. Your firm holds a current accreditation and wants to discuss paid placement. Include the accreditation scope (CGT, VAT, or both), the regional office that issued it, the name and email of the contact person empowered to sign, and the year in which the current accreditation was renewed. We handle partner enquiries on a first in, first out basis as slots become available.
Write to us by email
Send your message to [email protected]. Please state the subject at the top of your email (editorial correction, accreditation verification, partner enquiry, or other), so we can route it to the right person on the editorial team.
Email: [email protected]
Your message is processed for the sole purpose of responding to your enquiry. It is not used for marketing, is not shared with paying partners, and is retained for twelve months. Read the full privacy policy.
What to expect after you send
Editorial corrections are acknowledged within two working days and resolved within five when the source is clear. Accreditation verifications take slightly longer because we cross-check the regional DRFIP list and the firm's civil liability cover, so allow up to five working days. Partner enquiries are acknowledged within three working days; the actual commercial discussion happens only when a slot opens, which is typically once a year at the annual refresh of the Top 3 block.
We answer every genuine message. What we do not answer is a generic outreach from link-building agencies, guest-post pitches from unrelated industries, or "partnership" requests that are really affiliate tracking asks. Those are ignored, not replied to, to keep the queue clean for people who actually need help.
What we are not
We are not a law firm, we are not a fiscal representative ourselves, we are not a notaire, and we do not provide tax or legal advice. If you write to us with a personal tax question, we will point you to the relevant guide on the site or to the accredited firms in the directory, but we cannot compute your personal liability or act on your behalf. The accredited representative is the party that signs the 2048-IMM and guarantees the tax; that is the party you need to engage, not us.
Press and research
Journalists and academic researchers can email us with the subject "Other" and a short line identifying the publication or the study. We answer factual queries on the accredited representative regime in France (how many firms, how the threshold works, how paid placement is structured) without charge, and we are happy to be quoted by name. What we ask in return is a pre-publication review of any passage that attributes a specific figure or quote to the site, to catch accidental misquotes before they ship.
How to write a useful message
The messages we answer fastest are short, specific, and sourced. For an editorial correction, paste the passage that is wrong, name the page slug (for instance /fiscal-representative-france-cost), say what the correct version is, and link the source. For an accreditation verification, give the firm's legal name as it appears on the invoice or the engagement letter, plus the SIREN if you have it, plus the regional tax office that accredited the firm if it is mentioned anywhere in the paperwork. For a partner enquiry, attach the accreditation certificate rather than asking us to trust an assertion. The more we can verify before the first reply, the faster the first reply becomes.
Please do not send personal tax figures, copies of notarial deeds, or bank statements in the first email. The initial message is for a routing conversation, not for file transfer; if a message requires documents, we reply with a secure upload link once the conversation is established.
Accessibility and languages
Email works from any device and any assistive technology, no JavaScript needed. We read English and French. Messages written in either language are treated identically, although replies are in the language in which the message was received. If you need a reply in a third language, tell us which one and we arrange a translation for the substantive answer.
