Next, we present each of them so that you can evaluate which of all is the best for you.
New Single Simplified Regime (NRUS)
Natural persons with a small business, such as a bodega, market stall, shoe store, retail business, restaurant, hairdresser, or other, who only issue sales receipts, are eligible to apply for the NRUS.
As a benefit of this regime, there is no obligation to make the annual income tax return and also, to calculate your single monthly payment you must consider your income or purchases for the month and place yourself in one of these categories:
Example: if you registered your toy store with the NRUS and per month you had income of s/ 3,000, you only have to pay the fee of s/ 20.00 and in this way you are exempt from other taxes, such as IGV.
