A new comprehensive Double Taxation Convention between the United Kingdom and France was signed in London on 19 June 2008. The Convention will enter into force once both countries have completed their Parliamentary procedures and it will replace the existing Convention which dates from 1968.

A new Convention with France was originally signed on 28 January 2004 by both parties. Changes to the tax systems in both countries since then meant that that Convention could not be taken forward and it has been replaced by this new Convention, which incorporates additional improvements over the 2004 text.
