French VAT Rules for Composite Offers and Bundled Transactions

• The French tax bulletin (BOFIP) explains VAT rules for composite offers involving multiple goods and services.
• It determines whether bundled elements should be taxed separately or treated as one transaction.
• The key question is whether the elements are independent main supplies or whether some are merely ancillary to a principal supply.
• If treated as a single transaction, VAT is assessed globally to determine the type of supply and whether exemptions or reduced rates apply instead of the standard rate.
