Flat rate for self-employed workers: keys and conditions to be able to pay only 50 euros
Posted: Wed Dec 18, 2024 3:59 am
The flat rate for self-employed workers came into force on 28 September 2013 when Law 14/2013 on support for entrepreneurs and their internationalisation was published in the BOE. It basically consists of a reduction in the monthly fee to be paid to Social Security, the self-employed fee, if a series of circumstances are met to qualify for said reduction.
In this way, during the first six months of activity as self-employed, they only have to pay a fee of €50. While at the beginning the rate was more restrictive, currently the main requirement to be able to access it is not to have been registered as self-employed for the last five years . This is the only requirement, but in practice Social Security imposes some more.
You are not entitled to a reduction in contributions if you are the director of a company, if you are a self-employed collaborator, if you are in the special regime for family members of self-employed workers or if you have previously received a bonus in the special regime for self-employed local marketing email list workers. Other limitations such as having contracted workers or being over 30 years old have been eliminated and currently do not pose a problem for accessing this flat rate.

Flat rate for self-employed persons under 30 years of age
In the case of self-employed workers under 30 years of age, they are entitled to a reduction in the amount to be paid as self-employed contributions to Social Security, which varies depending on the time. By paying contributions at the minimum rate, they will have to pay:
50 euros for the first six months , which rounds out the previous 80% discount on the fee of 264.44 euros, which left it at just over 53 euros.
50% reduction during the following semester , assuming that the self-employed person has already started the activity and has some income from it on a regular basis. The fee rises for 2015 to 132.22 euros.
30% reduction during the second year and the first six months of the third , which leaves the amount to be paid at 185.11 euros, although this will vary if the minimum mandatory contribution changes over these years.
