Herve Novelli Secretary of State for Trade, Crafts, Small and medium enterprises, tourism, services and consumer notes with satisfaction the doubling of the amount of cumulative revenues of self-entrepreneurs between July and October 2009 .
At October 31, 2009, INSEE accounted 263,400 self-entrepreneurs. Among them, 147 000 self-entrepreneurs enrolled in the 1 st half and had a valid account with Urssaf. According to regulations, only these 147 000 self-entrepreneurs enrolled in the first half were asked to report their Turnover at the deadline of 31 October 2009. Only self-entrepreneurs with a turnover of non-zero are required to report to URSSAF.
According to figures provided by ACOSS, the self-contractors involved have generated sales of 383'affaires million euros during the first 3 quarters : 52 million euros for the 1 st quarter, 144 million euros for 2 e and 187 million euros for three e . These provisional data are likely to lead to upward revisions to accommodate late filers.
A delay exists in nature between the creation of administrative activity and the effective collection of revenue (launch time and prospecting for customers, including terms of payment). The increase in sales should continue to 4 th quarter, especially as the number of self-creation businesses recorded a strong acceleration since the summer: 1 st France had 100 in November ; 000 self-entrepreneurs more than a st July. The
'affaires average sales tax revenue for each quarter is 3 990 euros . This average turnover is high given the diversity of self-entrepreneurs: some practicing full time while others are self-contractors to supplement income.
