Professions liberales and auto-entrepreneur
I have just been reading an article (in Living France magazine), which says that for professions liberales there is no turnover ceiling and that contributions are 21.3% of turnover. Is this really the case? I’m an editor and am hoping to set up an auto-entrepreneur when I move to France. I had assumed that I would need to keep within the 32,000 Euro limit in order to quality for auto-entrepreneur status, but if I don’t need to do that I’ll be delighted.
I will be based in France but doing editorial work for various UK publishers. Would you recommend them paying me in UK sterling into a UK bank account (and then transferring the money to a French account), or would you recommend that I get paid in UK sterling directly into a French account? Apparently it won’t be possible for me to be paid in Euros.
