You might be able to enjoy it for another two years. As part of the review of the state budget, on Monday, October 20, deputies of the Finance Commission of the National Assembly adopted an amendment that expands the income tax credit for the acquisition and installation of a charging system for electric vehicles in 2026 and 2027.
“This tax credit will end on December 31, 2025, although it is an important lever in the French strategy to get out of fossil fuels: in addition to the deployment of charging points open to the public, the installation of charging stations in motorists’ homes remains essential to successfully electrify domestic mobility,” say Jean-Pierre Vigier and Nicolas Ray, deputies of the Republican right who promoted this amendment.
500 euros per charging system
With this modification of the finance bill (PLF) for 2026, the Finance Commission of the National Assembly preserves a fiscal niche, created in 2021, even as the government works to reduce these mechanisms in order to restore the public finances of the State.
“The impact of this tax credit on public finances is modest: the number of taxpayers who benefited was around 45,000 in 2023 and 47,000 in 2024, which corresponds to an amount of between 22 and 24 million euros,” the parliamentarians estimate.
Since 2024, the tax credit has already been limited only to remote “pilot” terminals. We remind you that you can take advantage of this advantage to purchase up to two charging stations if you are single: one per accommodation, that is, one terminal for the main residence and the second for the secondary residence. All this within the limit of 500 euros per charging station. For couples, the advantage is doubled: they benefit from the tax credit for two charging stations in their main residence and another two in their second residence. Here too, within the limit of 500 euros per terminal.
