Capital gains tax on selling an LMNP property

Since 15 February 2025, depreciation deducted on a non-professional furnished let (LMNP) reduces the purchase price used for the capital gain. The calculation gives the total tax and the part caused by this add-back.

Total actually deducted on the property, excluding furniture. Carried-forward depreciation not yet used does not count.

Empty: flat 7.5% of the purchase price. The higher amount is used.

Empty: flat 15% after more than five years of ownership. Excludes works already deducted or depreciated.

Ordinary sale by a private individual. Not covered: exemptions (main residence, holding period, sale of €15,000 or less…), selling costs, serviced residences (student, senior, care homes), which are excluded from the add-back.
