📊 Furniture Scale and Flat-rate Regime 2024
The flat-rate regime operates in increments of 10 pieces (rounded to the nearest ten).
Example: 43 chairs = 5 times the 10-unit code.
To be a small furniture producer:
Market placement < 15T/year.
Unit weight < 2kg/unit, or < 1,000 units > 2kg/unit.
📊 Furniture Scale and Flat-rate Regime 2025
The flat-rate regime operates in increments of 10 pieces and units
Example: 43 chairs = 5 times the 10-unit code or 43 times the unit code
To be a small furniture producer:
Market placement < 15T/year.
Unit weight < 2kg/unit, or < 1,000 units > 2kg/unit.
📊 Furniture Scale and Flat-rate Regime 2026
The flat-rate regime is calculated based on the proportion of furniture placed on the market
For instance: My company has a total turnover of €1,800,000 (€800,000 in furniture manufacturing, €1,000,000 in services (installation, renovation…)
My purchases of raw materials and components amount to €200,000, of which only €80,000 are not subject to eco-contribution (i.e., 40%).
The eligible base is 40% x €800,000 = €320,000
My contribution is therefore 0.4% x €320,000 = €1,280
To be eligible for the furniture flat-rate scale:
Annual turnover excl. VAT is below €2M
