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.
