The Directorate General of Taxes (DGI) recorded 131,212 new memberships in 2024, including 47% of professional natural persons and 53% of legal persons.
Auto-entrepreneurs concentrate 62% of newly recorded professional natural persons, specifies the DGI which has just published its 2024 activity report.
In order to improve the integrity of the register of taxpayers identified with the DGI and to combat unfair competition as well as the issue of false invoices, the 2023 finance law has introduced a new system establishing a register of inactive companies, recalls the same source.
This register concerns companies which, during the last three years, have not complied with their tax obligations and which have not carried out any operation or exercise during this period.
In this context, the DGI invited these companies to declare their cessation of activity within 30 days of receipt of a notification of the tax administration, under penalty of registration at the said register.
In 2024, a new rule engine was deployed on the system in order to identify professional taxpayers who did not comply with any obligation to declare and payment of taxes for the last three closed years. This engine made it possible to identify the taxpayers offered for registration in the inactive register.
In addition, the said report reveals that of the 212,303 recovery of the joint business identifier (ICE) registered under 2024, professional and professional persons represent 61% and 39% respectively.
The workforce of self-employed entrepreneurs at the end of 2024 amounted to 440,916, that is to say 2% compared to 2023.
During the year 2024, the DGI participated, in coordination with the partners, in the commissioning of the online business creation module via the direct company platform, on almost all the courts of the Kingdom.
This initiative is part of the continuous deployment of this platform, facilitating the creation and support of companies in a completely electronic way nationally.
In addition, work has been undertaken to take charge of the modifying registrations via the same platform, in particular by the development of business rules and functional specifications.
The report also recalls the design and development of a new feature allowing the online allocation of a tax identifier with simplified membership in Simpl and this, using the CNI (national electronic identity card) and by delegating the taxpayer’s identification to the “national trusted third party” platform.
