The cultural sector breathes a little more freely
As part of the Covid-19 pandemic, a first strong measure was taken by the Tax Shelter unit on March 13, 2020 to allow producers to extend by 6 months the period during which expenses eligible for the Tax Shelter can be performed. This measure is on the way to be confirmed within the framework of a bill of May 20, 2020 carrying various urgent fiscal measures because of the health crisis. Producers should now benefit, for all projects affected by this crisis, from a period of 24 months to spend on audiovisual works, and 30 months for animation projects and scenic works. Other exceptional measures are expected to be confirmed very soon. These must still be validated during a vote in plenary session in the Chamber: - The temporary increase (until the end of December 31, 2021) of the absolute investor exemption ceiling should be doubled: € 1,700,000 (instead of € 850,000) for the financial years ending no later than December 30, 2020 and 2,000,000 € (instead of 1,000,000 €) for financial years ending between December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2021). - Anteriority of expenses: article 194ter CIR92 allows, under certain conditions, to make previous expenses of maximum 6 months at the signing of a Framework Agreement. This principle of anteriority is not valid for Scenic Works. By this adaptation of the law, the priority should apply to Audiovisual and Scenic Works. Concrete measures that would allow the cultural sector to breathe a little more freely.

Advance tax payments: in case of insufficiency, think of the Tax Shelter!
For companies that end their fiscal year in March, the deadline for making advance payments has passed since March 20. Companies that find themselves in the absence or insufficiency of advance payments will be taxed at a higher rate. The increase applied to the basic tax amounts to 6.75%! There is a simple way to lower the score: make a Tax Shelter investment before the end of the fiscal year. This will be "doubly" profitable since it will, in addition to the tax yield of the Tax Shelter (5.25%), reduce the increase for insufficient advance payments. Indeed, the fact of making a Tax Shelter investment decreases the taxable base, and therefore the amount subject to the increase. More than ever, in such a case, think of the Tax Shelter!
16/03
Spending times extended by 6 months following coronavirus
By letter sent this Friday, March 13, 2020, the Tax Shelter cel of the Ministry of Finance officially announced the 6-month extension of the deadline granted to audiovisual and performing arts producers to make their expenses. The Tax Shelter law requires that eligible expenses have to be made within a maximum period of 18 months (24 months for animated films and performing arts) after the date of signing framework agreements with investors. In practice, this means that producers do not have to hang around to spend once the funds have been raised. The coronavirus crisis leads, as in all sectors, to a slowdown in activity which can resemble paralysis. How can we imagine, in the circumstances we know, the organization of a filming in Belgium? This measure taken on Friday by the Tax Shelter unit therefore allows a 6-month postponement of expenses in current projects for which funds have been raised. Good news for our sector!

Great distinction for SCOPE films in Paris and Berlin
Noticed last May at the Cannes Film Festival, in the "Un certain regard" section, then awarded three prizes at the Angoulême Francophone Film Festival and again nominated among the best foreign films at the latest Oscars, Mounia Meddour's "Papicha" was a favourite for the César for "Best First Film". This was confirmed with a double award for this audacious film, which won the César for "Best First Film" but also the César for "Best Female Newcomer" for Lyna Khoudri in the role of Nedjma. Among the films co-produced by SCOPE Pictures, no less than twelve nominations were in the running for the César: eight for "Grâce à Dieu" by François Ozon, two for "Papicha", as well as two respectively for Anaïs Demoustier for her role in "Alice and the Mayor" by Nicolas Pariser and for Chiara Mastroianni in "Room 212" by Christophe Honoré. Swann Arlaud, already winner in 2018 of the César award for Best Actor for the film "Petit paysan", won the award for Best Actor in a Supporting Role for his interpretation of the role of Emmanuel Thomassin in "Grâce à Dieu", a film devoted to paedophilia scandals in the Catholic Church in France. The sensation then truly began with the César for "Best Actress" that was given by Matthieu Kassovitz to the young Anaïs Demoustier for her role as Alice Heimann in "Alice et le Maire", in which she plays with Fabrice Luchini. In total, that makes four Césars for films co-produced by SCOPE Pictures! Finally, the weekend ended with a wonderful award for "Effacer l’historique", a beautifully crafted comedy by the Delépine-Kervern duo about the excesses of the digital era and social networks, which won a Silver Bear at the closing of the 70th Berlin International Film Festival. "Papicha", "Grâce à Dieu", "Alice et le Maire" and "Effacer l’historique" are films co-produced by SCOPE Pictures and supported by the Belgian Tax Shelter via SCOPE Invest.
