If your event takes place on French or Monegasque territory, French Sales Tax (TVA) is automatically added to all invoices without exception.
For corporate events, France has an arrangement with some countries meaning we can invoice without tax. Please ask for details.
On the other hand, TVA is not charged on French artists that perform abroad.
All French artists have a special status, and are registered with a specific social security system. Employers of artists are obliged to have a special license and need to assure that all social security payments are made, as well as taxes, insurances and other obligations. It’s a complicated and time-consuming administrative procedure that more than doubles the actual wage paid to the artist. Vive la France.
Of course, you can pay in whatever money you choose. However, it’s the amount that is credited to our bank account in euros that will be taken into consideration. Carefully check the procedures in your country and with your bank to determine the best option, as there may be poor exchange rates or hefty bank charges added.
As a general rule, our fees are calculated based on the number of hours we anticipate spending on a project and whatever costs we have. When it is impossible to judge this, we will estimate this as a percentage of the services we are responsible for.
Usually, we manage to cover our fees with savings made by negotiating with suppliers on your behalf.
You will lose your deposit, as we will have to pay cancellation fees to our suppliers.
If you have paid the full amount, we will refund 50% if the cancellation is made in writing more than 30 days before the event.
No refund will be made for cancellations less than 7 daysbefore the event. This includes cancellations due to the weather.
As much as possible we are supporting our clients who want to postpone, and we are encouraging them to reschedule later in the year. Whenever this is not possible, we will accept to transfer all deposits to any date the following year subject to the availability of the artists, staff and all equipment.
