In principle, all income from <a title=\"Why is professional cleaning essential for your seasonal rental?\" href=\"https:\/\/bnbgroomservices.com\/blog\/pourquoi-un-menage-professionnel-est-indispensable-pour-votre-location-saisonniere\/\">Airbnb furnished property rentals<\/a> is considered by the tax administration as industrial and commercial profits. You must therefore include them in your income tax return. However, it is important to consider the two types of applicable tax regimes. Firstly, according to Article 35, 5\u00b0 bis of the General Tax Code, the micro-BIC regime is to your <a title=\"Advantages of short-term rental for property owners\" href=\"https:\/\/bnbgroomservices.com\/blog\/avantages-de-la-location-de-courte-duree-pour-les-proprietaires\/\">advantage when your rental income<\/a> from your furnished tourist properties is less than \u20ac180,700. This status also allows you to deduct a flat-rate allowance of 71% on your receipts. The second regime, called \u201csimplified real\u201d, is ideal for deducting the actual expenses related to your <a title=\"Is it profitable to list your property on Airbnb?\" href=\"https:\/\/bnbgroomservices.com\/blog\/est-ce-rentable-de-mettre-son-logement-sur-airbnb\/\">short-term furnished rental<\/a> activity. This includes, for example, the operating costs of your accommodation, management fees, advertising costs, or interest in case of a mortgage. Before choosing between these two regimes, take the time to calculate the projected gains from your <a title=\"Long-term rental versus Airbnb rental: owner's guide\" href=\"https:\/\/bnbgroomservices.com\/blog\/location-longue-duree-versus-location-airbnb-guide-du-proprietaire\/\">Airbnb rental<\/a>.        <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How to Declare your Airbnb Income<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">When declaring your rental income from Airbnb properties, you have the option to deduct charges that are directly attributable to your activity. This includes the depreciation of all household appliances and furniture you have installed inside your rental property. You can also deduct any condominium fees, insurance premiums, property taxes, or maintenance costs for common areas. Deductible expenses also include \u201cenergy supply costs such as water, heating and\u201d electricity. Finally, if you use a specialized agency for managing Airbnb properties <a title=\"Short-term rental: everything you need to know about CFE and housing tax\" href=\"https:\/\/bnbgroomservices.com\/blog\/location-courte-duree-tout-savoir-sur-la-cfe-et-la-taxe-dhabitation\/\">such as BnB Groom Services<\/a> on the French Riviera, the management fees are also deductible from your income taxes.    <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Calculating Expenses Related to Tourist Property Rental<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In order to ensure good accounting and tax management of your Airbnb property rental, it is essential to provide regular and thorough monitoring, as tax authorities may at any time request documents justifying income and expenses. This is why archiving your documents for the recommended period of 10 years is essential. Additionally, these tax documents can help you implement a strategy to monitor the profitability of your rental investment.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Regarding VAT calculation, Article 261 D of the General Tax Code provides for an exemption for <a title=\"Will my property be profitable if I delegate its management to an Airbnb concierge service?\" href=\"https:\/\/bnbgroomservices.com\/blog\/mon-logement-sera-t-il-rentable-si-je-delegue-sa-gestion-a-une-conciergerie-airbnb\/\">rental accommodations<\/a>. This provision thus extends to Airbnb property rentals. However, VAT is due if you offer at least one of the following services: breakfast, cleaning, provision of household linen, as well as guest reception.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">However, in the new 2024 tax regulations, certain exceptions may apply: if the <a title=\"The Airbnb tenant doesn't want to leave my property: what to do?\" href=\"https:\/\/bnbgroomservices.com\/blog\/le-locataire-airbnb-ne-veut-pas-partir-de-mon-logement-que-faire\/\">cleaning service is offered for a stay<\/a> of less than a week, in this case, you are exempt from VAT.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Why Use Bnb Groom Services for Managing your Airbnb?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Bnb Groom Services is an agency specializing in <a title=\"Our advice for efficient and profitable management of your seasonal rental\" href=\"https:\/\/bnbgroomservices.com\/blog\/nos-conseils-pour-la-gestion-efficace-et-rentable-de-votre-location-saisonniere\/\">Airbnb property management on the French Riviera<\/a>, in the regions of Nice, Villefranche-sur-Mer and Cannes.
