    Banking reporting requirements in France?

    Anyone from France?

    What are the banking reporting requirements over there?
    Is every transaction ( wire transfer to the US ) over 10k Euro automatically reported to the government, or is it a higher amount?

    thanks

      Will search but I think it is a lower ammount. Also note that the IRS and the french Fisc have a much cozier relationship than Chirac and Bush.

      Feel free to drop me an icq.

        I can't use ICQ in the next hours, so if you find something, feel free to post it here.
        Just wonderig, I think this shouldn't be lower than 10k.
        In Poland it's 10k Euro and in France the salaries, cost of living etc are higher, so 10k means relatively less.

        Can't someone from France just send $13k to the US, to an escrow service and tell the bank that he bough something on an auction ( but not showing the auction documents to the bank )

        Or wil they consider it suppoorting terrotists or money laundering?

              certainly less than 10K, i'll say more around 3-4K, but depends on the destination. I did get troubles quickly when i left France with my money.

                but if you send from France to the US a wire transfer for $13k
                ( from a personal account ), does the bank ask you detailed questions about the purpose of the transfer ?
