Article 749 of the French General Tax Code

Exempt from the registration duty or land registration tax provided for in Article 746 are redemptions of units in common investment funds and units in real estate investment funds and the distribution of the assets of these funds among the holders.

When the holder of units in a real estate investment trust is in one of the cases mentioned in a and b of Article 730 quinquies, registration duty at the rate set out in 2° of I of article 726 est applicable. However, this registration duty does not apply when the holder requesting the redemption of its units is itself an undertaking for collective real estate investment.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article 749

Sont exonérés du droit d’enregistrement ou de la taxe de publicité foncière prévus à l’article 746 les rachats de parts de fonds communs de placement et parts de fonds de placement immobilier ainsi que la répartition des actifs de ces fonds entre les porteurs.

Lorsque le porteur des parts d’un fonds de placement immobilier se trouve dans l’un des cas mentionnés aux a et b de l’article 730 quinquies, un droit d’enregistrement au taux fixé au 2° du I de l’article 726 est applicable. Toutefois, ce droit d’enregistrement ne s’applique pas lorsque le porteur qui demande le rachat de ses parts est lui-même un organisme de placement collectif immobilier.
