TEE vs Micro-enterprises — Côte d'Ivoire
RegimeTurnoverStandard rateReduced rate
TEE (Entrepreneur State Tax)5 to 50M FCFA5 %4% for trading and dealing (art. 77)
Micro-enterprises50 to 200M FCFA6 %4% for members of an approved management centre (CGA) or businesses followed by a chartered accountant with a DGI agreement (art. 71 bis)
Both regimes replace profit tax and business licence tax, and are not subject to VAT. Micro-enterprises may opt for the simplified real regime.
Withholding taxes (WHT) — Throughout the WAEMU zone, companies must withhold tax on service providers' fees, rents, dividends and interest, under each country's own rules and rates. Deleky's makes sure you comply with all these obligations, whatever your country of operation.
