Last update: 4 hours agoLocal Tax Watch: In France, most councils are holding the line on taxe foncière in 2026, but homeowners should still brace for higher bills because the few big increases can be steep. A Le Parisien study says only 11 towns with 40,000+ residents have announced rate hikes, and where they do, jumps range from about 2.5% to nearly 30% (including Ajaccio +19%, Fréjus +22.4%, and Aulnay-sous-Bois +29.9%). Bills are expected from around August 25 to early October, with payment due toward the end of October. Regional Diplomacy: The EU ambassador to Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean, Fiona Ramsey, has formally presented credentials to OECS Director General Dr. Didacus Jules, reaffirming EU support for regional integration and sustainable development across the Eastern Caribbean. EU Overseas Policy: European Parliament discussions stress that biodiversity and climate goals for EU overseas regions need long-term financing, with calls for sustained support in the next EU funding framework.
