Compliance of energy excise duties

In addition, many manufacturers who use energy products in their production processes contact us to help them argue that the use of these products for purposes other than fuel is not taxable. By working with FISCALEAD, you can be sure of French sector expertise and experience in international flows. We know the uses of the sector and the different types of oil products:

  • The specific features of transporting oil products by truck, barge or pipeline
  • Tax-exempt and non-tax-exempt uses and supporting documents (fueling ticket or voucher, status of recipients, etc.)
  • Distinguishing between excisable and non-excisable products and their supporting documents (in particular T1 or T2 products, AEDs or DSAs)

Backed by this expertise, FISCALEAD is THE partner of choice for the indirect taxation of companies selling and distributing oil products.

  • We declare your VAT on oil products and related duties and taxes in France : Energy Excises (TICPE), CPSSP (or the contribution to the strategic stock) et TGAP / TIRUERT ( or general tax on polluting activities/ incentive tax on the use of renewable energy in transport).
  • We can also, under certain circumstances, put at your disposal our Registered Consignee status for the reception of oil products.
  • We keep your excise accounts in compliance with customs regulations and manage all your reporting obligations (SG, AH1, AH2, FRA, PPE under ISOPE).

Application for excise duty status

Receive, store and/or dispatch goods under suspension or intra-community duty-paid arrangements.

The excise statuses required for operations under suspension are respectively Registered Consignee, Authorised Warehouse Keeper et Registered Consignor. In the case of duty-paid intra-community transactions, the status required is that of Certified Consignee et Certified Consignor.

Each status comes with its own set of obligations in terms of declarations, accounting and financial guarantees. It is therefore essential to know how each status works and its limitations inside out! We’ll find the right status for you. Here are a few examples:

Deliveries of oil products to unregistered operators

You sell oil products to customers who do not have a French excise number. The products are dispatched from an authorised tax warehouse in another EU Member State.

In principle, you should pay excise duty in the Member State of departure AND in France (excise duty on energy or TICPE), the country of arrival of the products. FISCALEAD will set up the necessary authorisations for you to maintain the excise duty suspension arrangements on departure of the goods, and pay the excise duties in the country of consumption of the products only, without having to file an unnecessary refund application.

You deliver aviation fuel or fuel oil for ships. The products are dispatched from an authorised tax warehouse located in another EU Member State, OR delivered from a fuel depot OR a barge.

It is your responsibility to check, justify and record the quality of the recipient of the products and the use to which they will be put.

FISCALEAD will set up the necessary authorisations for you to ensure that the suspension system is maintained as far down the distribution chain as possible. We will also help you set up an audit trail to prove that the delivery is exempt, and will assist you in paying excise duties in France if necessary.

Regardless of the nature of your deliveries, FISCALEAD will draw up your application for excise status in France according to the needs identified.

  • Authorised Warehouser status, which allows excisable products to be received, stored and dispatched under suspension of excise duty.
  • the status of Registered Consignee, which allows products subject to excise duty dispatched from another Member State to be received under duty suspension arrangements and released for consumption
  • the status of Certified Consignee (CC), which enables excisable products dispatched from another Member State and already released for consumption duty-paid to be received.
  • the status of Certified Consignor (CC), which enables excise goods to be dispatched duty-paid to another Member State to a Certified Consignee (CC).

Once you have obtained your excise status, you can delegate the management of this status to us, if you wish:

  • Maintaining your excise accounting
  • Management of entries in GAMMA, the French platform for EMCS and declarations under ISOPE, on your behalf

Get professional support

As you will have understood, FISCALEAD maintains its own energy excise statutes and files declarations relating to oil taxes, on its own behalf or on behalf of its customers. We file several dossiers with the main customs offices responsible for this area, such as Le Havre, Dunkirk, Roissy, Marseille, Tours and others.

FISCALEAD also has expertise in several TIRUERT campaigns carried out for various actors. Fuel released for consumption in France is subject to TIRUERT, which is an incentive tax on the use of renewable energy in transport. Its main objective is not to pay the tax, but to improve the incorporation of renewable energy into transport. The tax return is an annual one, and requires a certain amount of technical expertise to determine the tax base and the applicable rate, not forgetting to check whether the documents relating to your incorporation of biofuels are eligible for a reduction in the rate of TIRUERT.

For all these specificities, and this niche expertise, if you are active in oil products, and you are not yet a FISCALEAD customer, we need to meet! Try operational support, not just theoretical. If you have any questions or would like a budget, please contact us. We’ll get back to you within 48 working hours.
