Vad ett mikroföretag utan anställda måste lämna in i Lettland 2026
Den här profilen utgår från den minsta företagsformen: ett mikroföretag (färre än 10 anställda, högst 2 miljoner euro i omsättning) utan någon på lönelistan, så skyldigheter kopplade till att ha anställda är utelämnade. Den täcker ändå de återkommande grunderna som nästan alla företag har - moms och andra skattedeklarationer, den årliga finansiella rapporten - samt EU-omfattande regler som AI-förordningen eller cyberresiliensförordningen, som gäller oavsett hur litet företaget är. Anställer du din första medarbetare, eller växer du förbi mikrostorlek, passar en annan profil bättre.
Den här sidan utgår från en specifik startprofil: mikroföretag utan anställda, i Lettland. Det är en utgångspunkt, inte skräddarsydd rådgivning - dina faktiska skyldigheter beror på din exakta bransch, omsättning och hur du driver verksamheten.

Direktiv (EU) 2024/825 ändrar EU:s konsumentskyddslagstiftning (direktivet om otillbörliga affärsmetoder och direktivet om konsumenträttigheter) genom att förbjuda generiska miljöpåståenden som inte stöds av erkänt utmärkt miljöprestanda (t.ex. 'klimatneutral', 'miljövänlig', 'grön' utan belägg), förbjuda påståenden som enbart bygger på utsläppskompensation, och kräva att hållbarhetsmärkningar baseras på ett certifieringssystem eller inrättas av myndigheter i stället för att vara egenskapade.
