There is an online formulaire to contact them to get a numero fiscale. Have you tried this?

Great news. After yesterday emailing the address that @kirsteastevenson found for Lot Et G seeking a TIN, today I have this response:-
Good morning,
In order to respond to your SPI request, please send me a copy of your identity document by return e-mail and send me the e-mail address you would like for the creation of your private space.
You can then access your file to update the occupation of the property you have acquired in Castillonnes.
Cordially
So it looks like I wont need a TIN to create my private space!
OnwardsâŠ

This is EXACTLY what I and various others I know locally had to do, the âcustomer spaceâ was in the system ready to be created, but I had to send ID to my tax office before theyâd effectively âunlock itâ for me to access. Iâve never seen anyone on here ever mention it before and this issue comes up semi-regularly so I havenât said so as not to give out potentially inaccurate advice/ information. I only discovered when I did exactly what you did; sent them a generic email saying âwhy canât I create an account?â Or words to that effect because it just wouldnât let me and they then told me to send ID, so thatâs interesting that youâve had that too. I always assumed since no one here had ever suggested this method that it was a quirk of my local office / situation, but perhaps itâs the case more often than I realised.

Holiday home completion of Declaration
Should it be of help to other second home owners who are registering their property.
After sending ID two days ago, today received this note. Before now I have not had a numero fiscal.
Bonjour Gxxxx xxxxxx (numéro fiscal : 1231231231239),
Vous pouvez dĂ©sormais crĂ©er votre espace particulier sur impots.gouv.fr Ă lâaide de votre numĂ©ro fiscal et votre date de naissance.
Depuis votre espace, vous pourrez notamment y gérer votre prélÚvement à la source, déclarer vos revenus, accéder à votre messagerie sécurisée.
En vous remerciant de votre confiance,
La direction générale des Finances publiques
Also on a seperate email was confirmation that my wife did not need to have a numero fiscal.
So went on to Impots site, created space and found our house was listed already. Altered names of occupants from previous owners to ourselves, which also automatically altered the size of the property to the correct size. Entered date we bought property in 2022. Confirmed details and that was it. Very easy and efficient.

Weâre just looking to fill in our declaration and it seems weâre listed as number 44 with 8 rooms and number 38 with a buanderie ou cave of 25sqm and the downstairs is as a garage of 60 sq m.
We only have one house with eight rooms in total.
How do we convince the impots of this?
Weâre going in to the tresorie tomorrow, any advice welcome. Thanks.
Just to add number 38 was converted by the previous owners and all proper planning was granted and 3 years ago we had a velux fitted and had to submit a complete breakdown of all rooms and measurements not long after.
So the impots were told.
Easy (hopefully!). You send a secure message by your messagerie to say the details are wrong. You will most likely be sent an H1 form to fill in with the correct details. They will amend the entry in accordance with the H1.
This is probably the same form as you filled in after the Velux was put in. But they just didnât do anything with it!
Thank you.

Good luck, we are just starting, waiting for the access TIN number. It willbe interesting to see what ours is like altough we have a lot less rooms.
Hi
Our mezzanine is small and has a low ceiling height for most of the area so not sure if it counts as a room.
Below 1.8m in height is not included in living space calcs I was told.

Thatâs for planning permission, not for taxation purposes. The room sizes are quite different. Also the tax people count some rooms that the planning permission people dont (or is it the other way round? I need to log on to check.
To be clear about height - we have bedrooms with sloping ceilings because of the roof. When calculating room size for planning permission/declaration prealable, itâs the internal area of the room where the height is 1.8m or above.
The taxable room size goes right to the wall (and may even include wall depth - again I need to check. Iâve been avoiding this declaration because I just know they have completely wrong area calculations⊠)

Ae you back in France now??? (Itâs more than 12 daysâŠsince you said you would be.)
if so, go and speak with someone at your Mairie.
Many Mairies are able to help folk with Governmental things⊠or they know where/who to speak with.
best of luck.
Me too, will give them until early next week and then bombard them (in triplicate)
It is the middle of the tax declaration period, and also the month with the most public holidays. Add that to strikes (while tax people are not on strike they are mothers and fathers who have had to cover child care while teachers are out) and yiu get the moment where any reponses are goimg to be delayed.
The deadline is still 6 weeks away.

I suspect youâve used an incorrect/out-of-date email address⊠but, when youâre here, you can check on that as well⊠and get the right email address for future use.
Thanks Jane, just get worried and want to get it sorted
I sent my declaration last week, got it sent by registered post, had a look, but due to weekend it hadnât been delivered⊠But will check again and see what happens. Iâm hoping it will be straight forward. Itâs tough going when you have to deal with anything to do with French stuff, while being in the uk.
