Démarcheo fills out your file and submits it on your behalf to the Guichet Unique. You never have to deal with the INPI yourself.
Let's get started!The auto-entrepreneur status, also known as micro-entreprise, allows you to carry out a commercial, craft or professional activity with simplified creation formalities and lighter bookkeeping. Social contributions and tax are calculated directly on the revenue actually received, with no cash advance required on revenue not yet collected.
It is the most widely used status in France for starting an independent activity, notably because it requires no capital contribution and the creation can be done entirely online, in just a few minutes.
Since 1 July 2026, ACRE is no longer automatic and exemption rates drop from 50% to 25%. Learn new eligibility conditions and how these changes impact your social contribution payments based on your status.
Source withholding operates through time-delayed installments. Understand why you rarely pay the exact amount and learn how to adjust payments to avoid surprises and manage cash flow effectively.
Since 2023, all business creation formalities go through the Guichet Unique, managed by the INPI (French National Institute of Industrial Property). This platform assigns your SIRET number once your file is approved.
This is precisely the step Démarcheo handles for you: as an approved agent, we create and file your application with the Guichet Unique, based on the information you provide us, after electronic signature of your power of attorney.
To keep the micro-entreprise regime, your annual revenue actually received must not exceed certain thresholds, revised every three years. For the 2026-2028 period:
Exceeding the threshold for a single year does not remove you from the regime — the threshold must be exceeded for two consecutive calendar years to lose the benefit as of the following January 1st.
Once your file is complete and your power of attorney signed, Démarcheo files it with the Guichet Unique. The SIRET assignment time then depends on processing by the INPI, generally a few days.
Yes, this is possible in most cases, subject to checking for any exclusivity or non-compete clause in your employment contract.
After two consecutive years of exceeding the threshold, you switch to the actual tax and contribution regime, with more detailed bookkeeping.
