Self-employed registration and deregistration
What is included and what is not promised
Becoming self-employed in Spain means two registrations, not one, and the order matters. Some decisions can only be taken at the start: the contribution base, the mutual insurer and the reduced rate for new entrants.
What it includes: tax registration and social security registration; choosing a contribution base against your expected income; applying for the reduced rate where the requirement is met. What it does not include: it does not include the ongoing accounting and tax work, which is a separate recurring service.

Frequently asked questions
Do I qualify for the reduced rate?
It depends on whether you have been registered before and when. We check before filing.
Which contribution base should I choose?
The one that matches your real expected income: under-contributing is cheaper now and dearer on sick leave and retirement.
Can I deregister and come back?
Yes, but it affects the reductions. We tell you how it affects your case.
