What you get
Three real pages from the file sold, shown as they are.
What it's for
What you have in hand at the end.
Almost everything that gets expensive happens before your first sale: registering too early and burning the ACRE reduction for nothing, opening a business bank account that isn't actually required, selling online without terms of sale, using the wrong tax rate. None of these mistakes are visible on the day you make them.
- Know when to register, and what that actually triggers.
- Pay the right rate, and recognise what isn't mandatory.
- Spot the fake official-looking letters that arrive as soon as you're registered.
Who it's for
This kit isn't for everyone.
It's for you if
- You're preparing a French micro-entreprise (sole proprietorship), on your own.
- You sell, or are about to sell, goods or services to individuals in France.
- You want to know where to check things yourself, not just what to do.
It's not for you if
- You're setting up a company with partners: the kit compares that option, it doesn't cover it in depth.
- Your activity is regulated and requires a diploma or licence.
- You're looking for advice on your personal situation: that's an accountant's job.
What's inside
Seven parts, in the order the questions come up.
- Before you register not registering too early, whether you're actually free to start, parental leave.
- Choosing your status which category you fall into, your thresholds, the ACRE reduction, tax.
- The official websites the six that actually matter, the one-stop registration portal step by step.
- VAT and invoices the four thresholds, the eleven required mentions, 2026 e-invoicing, the bank account.
- Before your first sale insurance or not, selling a physical item, selling your time, your brand.
- Not getting caught out why you'll be targeted, fake official letters, what to do if you've already paid.
- Your dashboard your filings, thresholds and deadlines, for the whole year.
How to use it
Read before you register, keep it after.
- Read the first two parts before filling in anything online.
- Follow the one-stop registration portal step by step, with the page open beside you.
- Keep the dashboard all year — it's what you'll use afterwards.
Before you buy
Questions we're asked.
Is this only available in French?
Yes — the kit is written in French: it covers the French administrative and tax system (URSSAF, the one-stop registration portal, French VAT thresholds), so the content itself is necessarily France-specific. It's built for founders registering a business in France, whether or not French is their first language. Write to us if you're unsure it's the right fit.
Does this replace an accountant?
No, and the kit says so itself. It gives you verified facts and their sources; advice on your personal situation remains a professional's job.
Rules change — when will the kit be out of date?
Every page carries its official source and the date it was verified. You always know how current what you're reading is, and where to double-check it.
Isn't this information free online?
It is, and the kit links to the official sources. What it saves you is having to find, cross-check and date it yourself across ten websites that contradict each other.
