亚马逊法国投资超2亿欧元，新建物流中心

据悉，近日亚马逊宣布，将于2026年6月在法国罗讷省Colombier-Saugnieu启用新的配送中心。

这将成为亚马逊在法国的第九个配送中心。该项目投资超过2亿欧元，预计为奥弗涅-罗讷-阿尔卑斯大区创造3000个长期合同（CDI）岗位。

自2010年以来，亚马逊已在该地区累计投资20亿欧元。随着Colombier-Saugnieu配送中心和计划于2026年6月启用的La Boisse配送站投入运营，亚马逊在该地区的物流站点总数将增至6个，分别位于Montélimar、Saint-Priest、Satolas-et-Bonce、Seynod、Colombier-Saugnieu和La Boisse，目前已雇佣超过1500名长期合同员工。

新配送中心位于里昂圣埃克絮佩里机场货运区。项目建设历时多年，与当地政府、经济合作伙伴和就业机构合作推进。

亚马逊表示，将优先招聘本地居民，以支持区域经济发展，招聘工作将于2026年3月底正式启动。该项目落地后，里昂机场平台上的员工总数将接近9000人。

据介绍，一个配送中心每天需要超过60种不同岗位协同运作。目前已启动运营经理、维护技术人员、自动化工程人员以及人力资源和职业健康安全等支持岗位的招聘。

3月底起，亚马逊将重点招聘物流操作岗位人员，主要负责货物接收、入库、拣选、包装和发货。

亚马逊还计划在2030年前投入5000万欧元，用于法国超过25000名员工的培训，提升其在物流、数字技术和人工智能领域的技能水平，目标是帮助员工获得国家认可的学历或职业认证，支持职业发展和转型。

随着新配送中心的启用，亚马逊在法国的物流布局和就业规模将进一步扩大。

亚马逊表示，该项目不仅是基础设施投资，也是长期参与当地经济发展的举措。如果你需要注册法国公司或者在法国开创跨境电商本土化运营事业，可以随时咨询(微信同号：13045886252）▼▼▼

04  Attention to the subsequent maintenance of the French company registration

After the registration of a French company, even if the operating data is 0, you should handle the maintenance work of the company's VAT tax filing, annual audit (annual account processing), and the filing of the annual financial report according to the regulations. Understand and comply with the relevant French laws and regulations to ensure the legal validity of the company.

1) Types of French company tax returns

Non-operating companies: These companies are usually only required to file zero returns and annual audits. A zero filing means that the company has not generated any income or expenses, but still needs to report them to the tax authorities.

Companies with operations: These companies are required to submit year-end financial statements and file year-end tax returns in addition to annual audits.

In broad terms, French taxes can be categorized as income tax, excise tax, capital tax and local taxes. The current tax rate is 36.6% on the net profit of a company. Businesses that do not make a profit, or make a loss, are only subject to the basic tax rate.

2) Annual review of French companies

In order to ensure the effective existence of a French company, a local accountant must be appointed from January 1 to May 15 of each year to conduct a company audit report.

The annual review of a French company mainly includes: confirming the company's business information, renewing the company's business license, renewing the company's registered address, and renewing the statutory secretarial services.

3) Filing of annual financial reports

At the end of the fiscal year, a French company must appoint a CPA firm to issue annual financial statements and file the company's VAT and Profit Tax (CIT) returns. However, the completion of the returns does not mean that the maintenance is complete, and the annual financial statements must be submitted to the Commercial Court for registration.

In accordance with French commercial law, the annual financial statements must be filed with the Commercial Court within seven months of their preparation.
