Wednesday 07 March 2018

We have updated and substantially enlarged our guide to setting up and running a micro-entreprise business in France.

A range of changes to this business status have been introduced in 2018, which have now been included in the guide. The changes include:

  • Revised maximum turnover levels
  • Revised rules relating to VAT
  • Changes to social security rates
  • Business registration procedures

We have also taken the opportunity to broaden the scope of the guide, to include:

  • Status of a spouse/partner
