Verified 06 June 2024 - Directorate for Legal and Administrative Information (Prime Minister)
You can benefit from a tax reduction if you live in a care facility for dependent seniors (Ehpad: titleContent) or a long-term care facility (ex-USLD: titleContent). We'll tell you what you need to know.
To benefit from the tax reduction, you must be hosted in an establishment, Ehpad: titleContent or long-term care facility.
You must also be resident for tax purposes in France.
The healthcare establishment must be in France or in another Member State of the European Economic Area (except Liechtenstein).
FYI
You benefit from this tax cut whatever your age.
The tax reduction takes into account the expenses related to addiction and accommodation.
It is based on the expenditure actually incurred.
Aid and allowances related to dependency or accommodation must be deducted. For example, the following aids:
- Custom Battery Allowance (Apa)
- Department social assistance
- Accommodation allowance
The tax reduction is 25% of the expenditure incurred, within an annual limit of €10,000 per person hosted.
The maximum tax reduction is therefore €2,500 per person hosted.
You must use the following online service:
2024 Online Income Tax Return 2023
You must include in your return the amount of dependency and accommodation expenses paid per person hosted, after possible deduction of the amount of aid received.
Enter these charges in the game Tax reductions - Tax credits of the online declaration, under Hospitality expenses in an institution for dependent persons.
