❓ FAQ – Declaring Airbnb Income in France (2025)
Do I need to declare Airbnb income even for just a few days?
Yes. Any income earned from Airbnb, Booking.com, or Abritel in 2024 must be declared in 2025 — even if you only rented for a few days. All short-term rental income is taxable in France.
Which form should I use to declare Airbnb income in 2025?
You must use the 2042-C-PRO tax form. Airbnb income is considered business income (BIC). Use field 5ND for Micro-BIC, or 5NA for the real tax regime.
What is the tax allowance for furnished rentals in 2024?
The standard allowance is 50% if your property is not classified, and 71% if it’s officially classified as a “meublé de tourisme”. The revenue ceiling is €77,700.
What is the real tax regime and when should I choose it?
The real regime allows you to deduct actual expenses like mortgage interest, repairs, cleaning, concierge fees, and depreciation. It’s usually better if your costs are significant.
Do I have to pay social contributions on my Airbnb income?
If you are classified as a professional landlord (LMP), or if your rental income exceeds €23,000 and makes up more than 50% of your total income, you are subject to social security contributions. Otherwise, you’ll pay standard social charges (17.2%).
What will change for 2025 Airbnb income (declared in 2026)?
From 2026, non-classified rentals will have a lower tax allowance (30%, capped at €15,000). Also, property depreciation will no longer reduce taxable capital gains in the LMNP regime.
How can CityCosy help me with Airbnb tax declarations?
CityCosy handles the entire process for you: tourism classification, tax form selection (LMNP or LMP), choosing between Micro-BIC and real regime, and optimizing your tax situation.
