Article 31-0 bis of the French General Tax Code

When a listed or registered historic monument, whether built or unbuilt, is the subject of a long lease for a period of at least eighteen years, the lessee is taxed as the owner on the income received, after taking into account the expenses incurred. This income is taxed under the income from property regime, unless the owner is a natural or legal person covered by the industrial and commercial profits regime. A lessee taxed under the income from land regime benefits, where applicable, by substitution of the owner, from the first paragraph of 3° of I of the article 156.

Article 31-0 bis

Lorsqu’un monument historique classé ou inscrit, bâti ou non-bâti, fait l’objet d’un bail emphytéotique d’une durée d’au moins dix-huit ans, le preneur est imposé en qualité de propriétaire sur les recettes qu’il a perçues, après prise en compte des charges qu’il a supportées. Cette imposition s’effectue sous le régime des revenus fonciers, sauf si le propriétaire est une personne physique ou morale relevant du régime des bénéfices industriels et commerciaux. Le preneur imposé sous le régime des revenus fonciers bénéficie, le cas échéant, par substitution du propriétaire, du premier alinéa du 3° du I de l’article 156.
