What are the new turnover ceilings?
Turnover corresponds to the sum of all cash inflows related to the small business activity.
In 2023, the annual turnover cap for the business under the sole proprietorship status is:
- € 188,700 for the purchase/resale of goods, accommodation services and the sale of foodstuffs to be consumed on site;
- 77,700 euros for commercial services, crafts and free activities.
- 188,700 euros for a mixed activity (sales and services), including 77,700 euros in services.
Up to a certain threshold, the individual entrepreneur is exempted from VAT. Therefore, he does not charge value added tax to his clients, which simplifies his accounting management. These thresholds were also reassessed in January 2023:
- €91,900 for the purchase/resale of goods, accommodation services and the sale of foodstuffs to be consumed on site;
- 36,800 euros for commercial and craft services and free activities;
- 91,900 euros for a mixed activity (sales and services), including 36,800 euros in services.
the Sole Proprietorship Case Benefit from simplified administrative obligations (tax, accounting and social).
What happens if a turnover threshold is exceeded?
If the business turnover threshold is exceeded for only one year, the company remains under the status of small enterprise.
If this happens for two consecutive years, the company changes its tax regime, which varies according to activity and earnings. Thus, industrial and commercial profits (BIC) are subject to the simplified real system or the normal real system. Non-commercial earnings (BNC) is subject to a controlled advertising regime. The Federal National Council is concerned only with liberal activities.
Exceeding the turnover cap also means new management and accounting obligations (maintaining annual accounts, annual inventory, increasing social security contributions, etc.).
