The scope of aesthetics has a sensitive boundary: some acts belong to the regulated health professions and fall outside the licence, whatever machine you buy. Offering an out-of-scope treatment exposes you to sanctions far beyond the commercial stake. We map the treatment menu against the filed qualification, before opening, not after an inspection.

How does the filing proceed?

We prepare the file, submit it on MyGuichet to the Directorate-General for Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises and follow it through to the decision. You sign, we do the rest; the flat fee is confirmed in writing before any hour is billed.

Salon, home studio or clients' homes?

All three models exist, but the fixed-establishment requirement and hygiene rules do not decline the same way. The choice of premises conditions the file and cost deductibility. Company at the single EUR 2,049 flat fee, bookkeeping from EUR 250 excl. VAT per month, takings and subscriptions included: the 2026 fee grid publishes every line.
