Earnings limit to benefit from French ‘micro’ rules?
Could you clarify the limit that I may now earn as a micro-entrepreneur ? I have been affiliated for 10 years and am registered as a “consultant” advising clients on their property renovations and repairs. C.A.
The threshold for income under the micro-entrepreneur system for rendering services is €70,000.
Note that you must apply VAT if your income exceeds €32,200.
The threshold benefits from tolerance levels.
If income in a given year exceeds the threshold and this is the first occurrence in a two-year period, then the following year the trader is allowed to continue as a micro-entrepreneur.
If you go over the threshold again the year after that, then you must change regime and declare under the réel tax system, with more complex accounting.
