OLD AGE EXONERATION FOR TV LICENCE DOES NOT APPLY IF YOU HAVE A SECOND HOME IN FRANCE WE HAVE HAD A HOLIDAY HOME IN BRITTANY FOR 20 YEARS BUT ONLY RECENTLY BOUGHT A TELEVISION. THE LICENCE
FEE HAS BEEN PAID VIA LOCAL TAXES BUT AS I AM 80, DO I HAVE TO PAY? R.F. There is an exoneration on this TV licence fee (La redevance audiovisuelle payable along with the taxe d’habitation)
for people over 60 whose incomes are below a certain threshold. If your income declared last year was below €9,837 for single people or €15,091 for couples you qualify. However this only
applies to main homes in France. Anyone with a home in UK with a second home in France with a TV in it has to pay the redevance.
