Social allowances can no longer be paid abroad from July 1

2023-04-21T09:05:16.417Z


Only the bank accounts of member countries of the European Union will be able to continue to receive the social benefits distributed by the French State.


Emmanuel Macron promised earlier this week "

strong announcements from the beginning of May against tax and social fraud

".

The government has anticipated by a few days the deadline set by the President of the Republic with regard to social security benefits fraud.

Guest of Europe 1 this Friday, the Minister of Public Accounts Gabriel Attal declared that "

from July 1, there will be no more payments of social benefits to foreign accounts outside the European Union

".

The measure had already been announced by the same Gabriel Attal last October, but its entry into force had so far been scheduled for 2024. The deadline is therefore brought forward by several months, as Olivier Véran had already revealed on Wednesday, in the report of the Council of Ministers.

Qualified as

“important”

by Gabriel Attal on Friday morning, the end of the payment of social allowances to accounts domiciled outside the European Union should concern the solidarity allowance for the elderly, family benefits, RSA or even the supplementary invalidity allowance.

Only the bank accounts of the member countries of the SEPA zone will be able to continue to receive the social benefits distributed by the French State, that is to say those of the European Union, as well as Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein , Switzerland, Monaco, San Marino, Andorra and the Vatican.

For example, it will be impossible to request the payment of the RSA on an African or Asian account, as is the case today.

This measure should not concern retirement pensions.
