wrong: non-profits are exempt from taxes in France as long as they do not
carry commercial sales.
totally different concept. No annual report. Right to run a few lotteries a
year. No limitation on any purpose. You can even manufacture goods, operate
an airline, run an Bank, etc. and make as much profits as you want, as long
as you do not distribute them to shareholders.
Incorporating a French association is free plus 33 bucks for the official
ad. Running it costs zip a year. To create a union (professional defense)
costs zip. zip is equal to a beer for the secretary (you need to be two
members for an association, one for a union) if he really needs it.
Articles and by-laws are nearly totally free for association, just a few
line on a letter for a union. Association Law is 101 years old and never
changed, there are millions of associations. Unions are Constitutional,
like political parties.
What you do: you create the non profit, open a bank account with a 33 bucks
deposit, get a bonus for opening the account, get an egg Visa card, pay the
official ad with egg and get a 5% refund to pay for the card. I meet a
large banck next week to try to work out a free serious e-payment tool.
I think Swiss, Belgium, Luxemburg associations are similar. But the French
system is extremely powerfull and quite organized.
