MEIs must submit declarations by Sunday (31); check rules
The deadline for MEIs (Individual Microentrepreneurs) to submit the DASN-SIMEI (Annual Declaration of Simples Nacional for Individual Microentrepreneurs) ends this Sunday (31st).
The declaration takes the year 2025 as a base and must be submitted by all companies, even if they had no revenue throughout the year.
Delay in rendering accounts will result in Maed (Fine for Delay in Filing the Declaration), with amounts starting at R$50 and 2% per month of postponement, limited to 20% of the taxes declared. If payment is made within 30 days, the fine will be reduced by 50%, totaling R$25.
In addition, the CNPJ may be declared unfit for failure to declare.
The Federal Revenue emphasizes that, if revenue exceeds the permitted limit, the MEI must look for an accounting professional to comply with the regime.

As determined by the federal government, Microentrepreneurs are considered to be Individual entrepreneurs who register annual gross revenue of up to R$ 81 thousand.
The declaration can be sent via the MEI App or the Entrepreneur Portal.
See the step-by-step instructions for the MEI Declaration:
- Access the Entrepreneur Portal, belonging to the Gov.br platform;
- Click on the "I'm already MEI" option and then select "Annual Billing Declaration";
- In the menu on the right, click on "Deliver Annual Billing Declaration";
- Enter the CNPJ and click "continue";
- Select the year referring to the declaration as 2024;
- Enter the value of the enterprise's total gross revenue, filling in the value referring to the provision of services and also for commerce and industry. As the MEI only falls into one of the two categories, the value of one of them will be R$0.00;
- The MEI must also inform whether an employee was hired during the period;
- After filling in the information, carefully review the taxes paid and confirm the declaration by clicking on "Transmit";
- Click on "Delivery Receipt" to save the proof of sending.
Like the conventional Income Tax declaration, the DASN-SIMEI can also be rectified in the event of errors in the information.
