Our intervention

From the determination of your matrimonial regime during a real estate acquisition to the organization of your succession in an international context, Angle Droit NoTAIRES assists you in the meanderings of international conventions or treaties in civil or fiscal matters.

One of the partners of the office having dual French-Italian nationality and speaking Italian, the office is able to support nationals of both countries or anyone who has a link with them.

More and more families and investors are living or developing projects straddling several countries. Binational marriages, international successions, real estate acquisitions abroad or from foreigners in France, installation of French people in a foreign country... These situations raise complex questions of applicable law and taxation. At Angle Droit NoTAIRES, we put our expertise in private international law at the service of your projects, with a particular emphasis on relationships between France and Italy. Our role: to anticipate conflicts of laws, to harmonize your choices and to secure your decisions in a cross-border framework.

Before leaving abroad, it is essential to consult your notary: European regulations determine the law applicable to your matrimonial regime, divorce or inheritance. Anticipating and choosing, rather than suffering, remains the best approach.

I am going to live abroad, is it useful to see my notary first?

European regulations determine the law applicable to a divorce or an inheritance, even if one does not make a marriage contract. It is better to know this before and to choose rather than to suffer.

I am Italian, resident in Italy. I have assets in France and Italy, one of my children is an Italian resident, the other French. Being in Italy, does my country's tax law apply?

Not always because sometimes there are tax treaties between countries. This is the case between France and Italy when it comes to gift and inheritance tax. It is important to know how to analyze them because the material is very technical. Moreover, in the absence of agreements there may be a risk of double taxation.

Do I need to write a specific will if I have assets abroad?

It is obvious that we must question the law applicable to these assets and choose the drafting of a will adapted to the form and content that will be recognized in this country if necessary.

Do I have to declare in France the donation made of a property abroad?

Whether in good faith or in bad faith (not seen or taken) the question is not asked and the process is even less carried out when there is an obligation. In addition to knowledge of the law, let us not forget that our age makes the exchange of information between countries more and more effective.
