Frequently asked questions

How long does the 80€ Tarifa Plana last?
The 80€/month Tarifa Plana applies during the first 12 months of registration in RETA. After that, contributions are calculated based on net earnings for the year (system of contribution by actual income since 2023).
Can I combine unemployment with self-employment?
Yes. You can capitalize unemployment benefits (receive 100% of unemployment insurance once to invest in your business) or partially combine them. Check the conditions at SEPE before registering.
What specific support does Aragon offer for self-employed individuals?
IAF offers the Emprende en Aragón program with free advice, access to startup incubators, and training. They also manage the Fondo de Inversión en Aragón (FIA) program for innovative entrepreneur projects. The three Aragonese Chambers of Commerce provide additional training and networking.
Which IAE code should I choose?
The IAE code identifies your economic activity to the tax authority. Choose the one that best describes what you will be doing. The AEAT has a search tool on their e-sede website. If you have multiple activities, you can register under several codes simultaneously.
When do I start paying self-employment contributions?
Starting from the first day of the month in which you register. If you register on the 1st of the month, pay the full contribution for that month. If you register mid-month, pay a proportional amount. That's why it's best to register on the 1st of the month.
