Open Bybit ->Why France freelancers are switching to USDT
In France, freelancers (auto-entrepreneurs and professions liberales) hit PayPal's 4.4% international rate on every overseas client. With the 20% TVA layer plus URSSAF charges, every 1% saved on processing matters.
The math at typical France freelance volumes (EUR 4,500/month):
- PayPal international: ~7-8% effective cost = significant annual loss.
- USDT on Bybit: ~0.1% effective cost — almost negligible.
- Setup time: 10-15 minutes including KYC.
Tax note for France: In France, crypto received as freelance income is taxed as BNC (Benefices Non Commerciaux) at receipt. Capital gains on later disposal are taxed at the flat 30% PFU. Bybit is legally accessible but you must declare foreign exchange accounts on form 3916-bis annually.
