Q15: What does box 8PL correspond to for dividends in the 2047 tax return?
Box 8PL is used by the French tax authorities to ensure that the foreign tax credit granted is properly capped at the amount of the corresponding French tax. To this end, the amount of foreign income subject to tax, as determined on Form 2047, should be reported in box 8PL.
In the case of Disney dividends, it is appropriate to report in box 8PL the same amount as that calculated in box 2DC (i.e., the amount of your Disney dividends taxable in France).
Accordingly, as example, if you have determined an amount of €125 in box 2DC, the same amount should be reported in box 8PL.
