France Tax Codes
Tax codes determine how much tax is paid on each transaction line item. For NetSuite to calculate correct values on transaction records and tax reports, make sure that the tax codes for France are set up correctly.
For more information on tax codes, see Tax Code Properties and Creating Tax Codes.
Important Things to Note
-
The International Tax Reports SuiteApp only supports 139 unique tax codes per tax period for each country.
-
You can use more than 139 tax codes for each country if these tax codes are not used in the same tax period.
Tax Code Table for France
The following table shows the tax properties required to correctly generate the France VAT report provided by the International Tax Reports SuiteApp. The tax code names or letters presented in the table are suggested names or default system preferences. You can rename the tax codes. Tax reports identify transactions by looking at the tax code properties, not the tax code names.
On the New Tax Code or Edit Tax Code page, check the boxes of the properties that apply to the tax code. For more information about tax code properties, see Tax Code Properties.
To understand how NetSuite uses the tax codes to get the values for the France TVA Form, see What goes into each box – France VAT report.
