The first steps to start and register as self-employed are the simplest and quickest if we decide to carry out an economic activity on our own. However, it is necessary to carry out certain administrative procedures that we must be aware of.
The first of these is to register as a self-employed worker with the Treasury. We must present the census declaration forms (forms 036 and 037) , in which apart from including our personal data, we must indicate the activity we are going to carry out, the location of the business and the taxes to be paid. Within thirty days of our visit greece phone data to the Treasury, we must register with the Special Regime for Self-Employed Workers (RETA) of the Social Security. To do this, we must present form TA0521 to one of the Social Security administrations together with our photocopy of the DNI and the photocopy of the registration with the Treasury. Finally, if we wish to start a business, we must also request an opening license from the City Hall of the town where it will be established and notify the corresponding labor organization of the opening.
ESTABLISH YOUR OWN BASE
One of the main advantages that self-employed workers have is that they can establish their own tax base , equivalent to their salary, to make payments to Social Security. This causes more than 85% of self-employed workers to choose the minimum allowed , which is 849 euros for those under 49 years of age. But be careful, choosing the lowest amount can be a mistake, since, in the event of sick leave or an accident at work, the amount that we will receive will be a percentage of our base. Between the 4th and 20th day of sick leave, we will receive 60% of the amount on which contributions were being made, from the 25th day, this percentage will increase to 75%. Finally, this base established by the self-employed will serve as a reference to determine their income from maternity and retirement.
Every quarter, self-employed workers must make the corresponding payments for their VAT and IRPF . In the case of IRPF , the amount that we must pay is in proportion to the income obtained , the payment system is not unified so there are important differences depending on whether we contribute to one community or another. Self-employed workers must complete a book of issued invoices that will allow them to pay the VAT . Although the general rate is 21%, there are exceptions such as 10% for sectors such as hotels, restaurants or agricultural goods or 4% for food, medicines or books.
