- France is proposing to change the VAT regime for television subscriptions, increasing the rate from 10% to 20% in mainland France.
- The proposal would also quadruple the VAT rate in France’s overseas territories.
- CANAL+ says the measure would have a severe financial impact, potentially reducing revenue and operating margin by up to €200 million per year.
- The company argues the tax increase would likely force higher subscription prices, workforce adjustments, and lower support for film, sports, and broader cultural sectors.
