French LFI Party Proposes Raising Dividend Flat Tax to 34.4%
- —Amendment would raise the PFU tax component from 12.8% to 15.8%
- —Total dividend tax rate would rise from 31.4% to 34.4%
- —Changes target Article 117 quater on dividends, not crypto
- —The amendment must pass finance committee and parliament review
Why it matters: A higher PFU could set a precedent for raising crypto capital gains tax, which uses the same 30% flat rate.
