My partner and I registered as auto-entrepreneur’s last month and have received our Siret numbers and have started working. It has all been very easy so far. We have now received a letter asking us to complete some basic details about our property for Taxe Professionnelle to be calculated:

We are supposed to be exempt from TP for 3 years - is the letter we’ve received correct, i.e. does everyone receive this when registering as an auto-entrepreneur, or have they made a mistake?
In the letter it says if we don’t reply they will use the rental value of the property as a basis for TP, so I assume we should fill it in and send it back even though we should be exempt from TP? Or should we write and tell them we should be exempt?
We only use a small area of our apartment for business (a couple of desks in a spare room). On the form it asks what area we use for business - should we complete this with the space used for our desks, or the whole room space, or put zero because the room is also used for other non-business purposes?

We would really appreciate it if anyone else has experience of this and could offer some advice.
