Charges for auto-entrepreneurs: the government is tempering

The executive calms the game. A decree to plan a system of exemptions from social charges for auto-entrepreneurs, rejected by the representatives of the latter, will not be published on Tuesday contrary to what was planned. "There will be no decree in the Official Journal" on Tuesday, said those around Muriel Pénicaud, confirming information from the National Federation of Auto-Entrepreneurs (FNAE).

The latter, received earlier Monday by Muriel Pénicaud, had announced this delay and underlined in a press release that "an interministerial consultation (Bercy, Matignon, Labor, Social Security) would take place in the coming days to alter the measure".

Last week, the FNAE protested against a draft decree providing that the reduction in charges, entitled Acre and relating to the first three years of the company's existence, would be 50% for only one year, instead 75%, then 50% and 25% over three years.

“This was planned without any prior consultation,” protested Grégoire Leclerq, president of the federation, who sits on the Council for the Social Protection of Independent Workers (CPSTI, formerly RSI) where the measure was discussed. In addition, "the decree plans to tackle the current auto-entrepreneurs who benefit from Acre by putting transitional rates", 18 in number, "a real gas factory", according to him.

In its press release on Monday, the FNAE proposes "not to modify the Acre rates for self-employed entrepreneurs already registered", "to return to the prior definition of Acre (which focused on job seekers, RSA recipients and young people)" or even to "think about opening up Acre according to other criteria".

For its part, the Union of Auto-Entrepreneurs (UAE), also received on Monday by the Minister of Labour, indicated in a separate press release that it had "put forward a proposal for justice aimed at maintaining the full benefit of Acre, as than currently in force, for auto-entrepreneurs who can claim the withholding tax, that is to say those who have a reference tax income of less than 27,086 euros per year.
