In France, taxes are levied by the government, and collected by the public administrations. French public administrations are made up of three different institutions:• The central government - it has a separate budget (general budget, special Treasury accounts…), it collects most of the taxes. • The local governments - they collect many taxes, but their weight is rather limited compared to that of central government. • The social security association – that are the private organizations endowed with a mission of public service, their budget is made up of all mandatory social security funds (unemployment insurance schemes, complementary retirement funds, welfare benefit funds…).
