My husband and I (both Americans) were granted visas to work as independent °µÍø½ûÇø consultants in France. The renewal of our carte de sejour each year is dependent upon viable °µÍø½ûÇø activity. Our French lawyer is about to register our °µÍø½ûÇøes on the Unions de Recouvrement des Cotisations de Sécurité Sociale et d’Allocations Familiales (URSSAF) website; however, he’s unclear on some fiscal aspects of the registration.
If we register as micro-entrepreneurs, I understand that our max turnover is 32,900 euros. Additionally, we must pay 23.1% for our social charges. I also understand that we must file our taxes (for tax year 2016) in June 2017 and pay in September 2017.
- Are the social charges paid quarterly for micro-entrepreneurs? If not, when do we pay? Is the 23.1% based on the max 32,900 euros? If not, what can we expect to pay in year one?
- What percentage of income tax are we required to pay based on the maximum income of 32,900 euros?
- Does this status require registration with any department other than URSSAF?
- If we choose to the individuelle reel simplife °µÍø½ûÇø structure, I understand that our social charges are 3,000 euros for the first year and the 46% of our total net profit. What percentage of income tax are we required to pay on the net profit?
- Please explain regime d’assurance maladie actuel?
- Please explain Regime d’imposition des benefices (BNC, declaration controlee)?
- Please explain Regime TVA (simplifie, normal, or declaration trimestrielles)?
