France Probes Samir Nasri’s Tax Residency Using 212 Paris Food Orders

The case spotlights how French tax officials mine digital trails to test where high‑profile residents actually live.

Overview

  • French tax authorities have opened a fiscal review of Samir Nasri that could lead to a reassessment reported at about €5–6 million.
  • Investigators cite 212 Deliveroo meal orders in 2022 sent to a Paris address linked to Nasri as a key sign of regular presence in France.
  • Officials also reviewed airline records, online purchases, and television appearances to map where he spent most of his time.
  • Nasri is officially registered as a Dubai tax resident and works as a Canal+ commentator, and he denies the allegations.
  • If liabilities are confirmed and go unpaid, media reports say the tax office could freeze bank accounts under standard enforcement rules based on habitual residence.
