How to calculate taxes on foreign payments?
If for some reason the bank's rate on that day was higher than the Central Bank's rate (the rarest
case), the "service" received is also taxed. It is easier to follow this point than to deal with
additional calculations.

Yes, most providers have limits on international transfers from French Guiana to France. These limits may depend on the provider, the amount, and your identification level. For example, larger transfers from French Guiana to France may require identity verification or proof of source of funds.
