A registered address is to a company what the official place of residence is to a person. In other words, it is the legal and administrative address of reference. As an integral part of its identity, a company's domiciliation corresponds to the address of its registered office. This determines the company's nationality, its country of taxation and the competent jurisdiction in the event of a dispute.
In your own home: On the face of it, this is a good idea, although it exposes your private life publicly (in online directories) and to all your customers. In reality, it has more drawbacks, and clever alternatives exist!
Let's be clear: business domiciliation allows you to separate the address of your head office from your actual place of work. You can be domiciled in the Paris region without actually working there (and enjoy the benefits of working from home wherever you like).
By locating your business in the Paris region, you can put Paris's reputation to work for you. First and foremost, Paris is a world city that is particularly prestigious in the eyes of the entire planet. It boasts a number of attractive and dynamic business districts (La Défense, Bourse, Opéra district, Saint-Denis Pleyel district, etc.).
It's a blend of Haussmann architecture, cultural richness and business dynamism! This unique blend is the envy of every continent! What's more, the Ile-de-France region is connected to the whole world thanks to its rail, road, river and airport networks.
The Paris Region attracts companies of all sizes, from small businesses in a back street in the4th arrondissement to large multinationals in the heart of the 8th arrondissement, or at La Défense. Paris is also a dynamic entrepreneurial capital, with a growing start-up ecosystem.
The Paris region is so rich and vast that there are business addresses to suit every profile. If you're in the tourist industry, or exporting goods internationally, chances are that a famous address will add real polish to your business card. And why not choose to domicile directly on the Avenue des Champs-Elysées?
For entrepreneurs on a tighter budget, a multitude of addresses are available in the Paris suburbs (Hauts-de-Seine, Yvelines, Seine-et-Marne, Seine-Saint-Denis, etc).
Did you know that domiciling your business can also help you save on taxes? In fact, the CFE tax rate in Paris is lower than the national average! It's also possible to benefit from a total exemption if you wish to set up in a Zone Franche Urbaine (ZFU) or ZFU-TE.
