FR Tax Liberal Practice Company


On Jul. 9, FR Tax changed liberal practice company partners' taxation.


  • FR Tax informed on new tax regime for partners in liberal practice companies (SEL).
  • Main Points
  • Changes due to the Council of State's, i.e. the Supreme Administrative Court, case law.
  • Partners' received remuneration for their professional activity in SEL is now taxable in the category of non-commercial profits (BNC), and not in the salaries/wages category.
  • As a temperament, these provisions will only apply from 2025, for income received in 2024; a BNC results declaration form No 2035-SD must therefore be filed in 2025.
  • Those under micro-BNC regime can use the income declaration form No 2042-C-PRO.
  • Updated tax doctrine BOI-RSA-GER-10-30, BOI-RES-BNC-000136 is available online.
  • Effectiveness
  • The new tax regime will apply from Jan. 1, 2025, for income received in 2024.
  • Sep. 19, 2024 Questionnaire
  • On Sep. 19, 2024, FR Tax outlined tax regime procedure & questionnaire to be sent by partners to professional practice company (SEL) corporate tax department manager.
  • Partners must create a professional file in order to declare 2025 professional income.
