Starting February 1, 2026, several significant changes will impact household budgets and daily life in France. The interest rates for regulated savings accounts, including Livret A, LEP, and LDDS, will decrease from 1.7% to 1.5%, and the account of savings for housing (CEL) will have an interest rate of 1%. Electricity bills are expected to decrease as the contribution tarifaire d’acheminement (CTA) drops from 21.93% to 15%, leading to an estimated €10 annual saving per household. Additionally, regulated electricity tariffs are proposed to decline by 0.83%. Gas prices will also slightly fall, with the average price per kWh decreasing by 1.6% for cooking/water heating and 2.1% for heating. Toll prices on French highways will increase modestly by 0.86%. The rules for airline compensation in case of delays or cancellations will tighten, requiring passengers to go through mediation before legal action, which could be more costly. Taxi fares will see a fixed minimum of €8 per ride and a slight increase in per-kilometer charges from €1.29 to €1.30. Cigarette prices will vary, with some increasing to €12.70 and others decreasing slightly. Other updates include changes in the voting registration deadline, new procedures for airline disputes, and slight adjustments in tobacco product prices. These measures aim to adjust economic parameters and improve consumer protections across various sectors.
