Article L3333-4 of the French General Code of Local Authorities

Companies operating ski-lift equipment may be subject in mountain areas to a departmental tax on gross revenue from the sale of transport tickets, the proceeds of which are paid into the departmental budget.

The amount of the departmental tax is included in the price of the transport ticket and collected from the user.

The basis of assessment for the departmental tax does not include the amount of the latter or that of the communal tax provided for in article L. 2333-49.

The departmental tax is collected by the department as in the case of turnover tax under the conditions set by decree in the Conseil d’Etat.

Article L3333-4

Les entreprises exploitant des engins de remontée mécanique peuvent être assujetties en zone de montagne à une taxe départementale portant sur les recettes brutes provenant de la vente des titres de transport et dont le produit est versé au budget départemental.

Le montant de la taxe départementale est inclus dans le prix du titre de transport et perçu sur l’usager.

L’assiette de la taxe départementale ne comprend ni le montant de celle-ci, ni celui de la taxe communale prévue à l’article L. 2333-49.

La taxe départementale est recouvrée par le département comme en matière de taxe sur le chiffre d’affaires dans les conditions fixées par décret en Conseil d’Etat.
