Ce profil suppose une petite entreprise (moins de 50 salariés, chiffre d'affaires jusqu'à 10 millions d'euros) qui emploie déjà du personnel : il inclut donc, en plus du calendrier fiscal et déclaratif habituel, les obligations liées à la paie et au lieu de travail. Il intègre aussi des règles européennes, comme NIS2 ou l'AI Act, qui s'appliquent lorsqu'une entreprise atteint cette taille ou opère dans un secteur couvert. Si votre effectif ou votre chiffre d'affaires diffère, ou si vous n'avez aucun salarié, un autre profil correspondra mieux.
Cette page part d'un profil de départ précis : petite entreprise avec des salariés, en Allemagne. C'est un point de départ, pas un conseil personnalisé - vos obligations réelles dépendent de votre secteur exact, de votre chiffre d'affaires et de votre mode de fonctionnement.
