Tax on Instant Access Savings
Tax deduction from Instant Access Savings
As required by French tax law, we'll deduct 30% taxes from any interest you've earned. We do this before it's credited to your Instant Access Savings. Revolut withholds and pays the tax office the following on your behalf (12.8% as income tax and 17.2% as social surtaxes).
The deductible tax must reach €0.01 before we withhold it. In cases where it's less than this amount, we'll continue to accrue your interest until it reaches €0.01 (at which point it's deducted from your next interest payment). As a result, the tax rate for each interest payment may be different.
To see the tax withheld on your total interest payments, you can use your combined savings statements. Read this FAQ to learn how to calculate interest and tax on Instant Access Savings.
