A prestigious address

If you're looking for a prestigious address for your company's head office, we advise you to opt for a well-known region such as the Paris region. For example, Paris is one of the most popular cities for entrepreneurs. Renowned for its international reputation and multiculturalism, Paris offers a wide variety of neighborhoods.

If you operate in a field that requires a serious, highly professional image, the ideal location is in the city's business districts. There are also artistic districts for those working in this sector. Paris also caters for many other business sectors. The same applies to the region, which can accommodate all kinds of businesses. The region offers addresses that reflect the spirit and personality of the business to be created.

The ideal choice for all companies

Domiciliation in the Paris Region is possible for all companies. Whether you're a small, medium-sized or large company, you'll find the perfect address in this region. It's a vast region made up of several départements that can be home to your business or company. For example, you may not be able to domicile your business in a large city like Paris or Versailles. In this case, some of the departments in the Ile-de-France region also have a lot of potential for domiciliation. Yvelines is one such department.

What's more, the region is full of companies specializing in domiciliation, as is the case with our company. At SeDomicilier, we're able to find you some very good, even luxurious, addresses at unbeatable prices. All you have to do is select your head office from a large number of prestigious addresses and choose your mail option. You'll then receive your contract, which you can sign online, free of charge. With SeDomicilier, you benefit from a service that makes your daily life easier.

As well as locating your head office in the region, you can also set up your place of business here, whether it's a commercial premises or a factory. This is a highly advantageous solution, as the Paris region is a nerve center where travel and deliveries are no problem.

Reap the economic benefits

Domiciling your business in the Paris region offers real economic advantages, especially if you choose Paris. Business property tax rates in Paris are lower than in other departments in the region. Many entrepreneurs are afraid to set up in certain cities. That's why the French government has decided to help businesses grow in these cities.

In the Paris region, for example, you can set up in ZFU (zones franches urbaines). These zones are located in neighborhoods classified as disadvantaged. To help these neighborhoods develop, the French government has set up tax exemptions for entrepreneurs. Under certain conditions, they will not have to pay taxes for a given period of time. By choosing to set up your head office in the region, you'll save on your business property tax.
