Article A444-56 of the French Commercial code

For gratuitous transfers, the valuation of the usufruct and bare ownership is established in accordance with the provisions of article 669 of the General Tax Code.

However, a donation with usufruct reserved in favour of the donor entitles the donor to the same emolument as that relating to full ownership.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article A444-56

Pour les mutations à titre gratuit, l’évaluation de l’usufruit et de la nue-propriété est établie conformément aux dispositions de l’article 669 du code général des impôts.


Toutefois, la donation avec réserve d’usufruit au profit du donateur donne droit au même émolument que celle qui porte sur la pleine propriété.
