Having
previously announced, in June, the decision to severely cut the turnover limits
for AEs from €32.600 down to just €19.000 for service providers & artisans and
€81.500 down to €47.500 for traders, it would seem that this plan has been
shelved by the French Government in face of extensive opposition.
The French
financial newspaper Les Echos disclosed
that they had obtained a draft of the legislation and there were no references
to reductions in turnover limits.
An FEDAE (the
AutoEntrepreneurs’ Federation) spokesman said that if true, it was a victory
for commonsense. Numerous leading
political figures have been throwing their weight behind support for the FEDAE
action to convince the Government that such restricted turnover limits would be
the death knell for the AE regime.
