The measure
- Objective: to transfer the remuneration associated with intellectual property and with copyright to the worker, allowing him to benefit from a reduced taxation on the valorisation of his work.
- As taxable income from movable assets, and under certain conditions, copyright is subjected to an interesting tax system since 15% of the income concerned, instead of the usual brackets of the withholding tax.
- Subject to eligibility, this may therefore represent a net cash benefit for creative workers, the condition here being that the original character of creations must be established in a secured manner.
- Works such as informatics encoding, artistic creation in connection with publicity documents, etc., are eligible for copyright.
