The tax credit for audio-visual and cinematographic creation expenses

The third amending finance law for 2020 is for the benefit of companies subject to corporation tax that are conducting activities as an on-demand television, radio or audio visual media service and justifying a reduction in their turnover for the period between the 1^st March 1 and the 31^st December 2020. These companies will be able to enjoy an exceptional tax credit.

As of the 17^th June 2021, a decree sets the implementation of the exceptional tax credit, which certain categories of people will benefit from, such as television, radio and audio visual services, on account of their expenses on cinematographic and audio visual creation.

How much will it be? 15% of the amount of expenditure promoting creation during the period between the 1^st March and the 31^st December 2020 will be allocated to the corporation tax owed by the company for the fiscal year ending on the 31^st December 2020.
