    Written in 1789, this document is of great cultural and historical significance in France, reflecting as it does the Republican ideals upon which modern France is founded.

    People in France are required to declare their taxable earnings at the beginning of the year for the previous calendar year. Thrice-yearly tax payments ( tiers provisionnels) are based on one third of the previous year's total, the final payment being adjusted according to the actual tax owed. It is also possible to pay tax on a monthly basis. This is known as mensualisation.
    Adopted by the National Assembly on 4th August 1789, the Declaration proclaims the inalienable natural right of all men to freedom, condemns the privileged class of the Ancien Régime and declares all citizens equal before the law. In 1793, the preface to the Constitution added the right to education, work and freedom of assembly to the text of 1789.
