THINGS might just get a little easier for small businesses in France with the launch of the l’auto-entrepreneur system of registration offering tax and social charges payments based on turnover.
There is an official government website on the l’auto-entrepreneur system, set to come into operation on January 1, 2009, that offers plenty of background information.
You can download some .pdf documents via the Documents utiles link and there is also a newsletter you can subscribe to and so stay in touch with the latest on the system.
