OFFICIAL ALERT: Official Gazette news for self-employed company directors and family members

Order PJC/297/2026, published in the Official Gazette on 31/03/2026, has made the contributions for the current year official, with retroactive effect from 1 January:

• The contribution rate rises to 31.50%, including the annual increase of the Intergenerational Equity Mechanism (MEI), set at 0.90%.
• Mandatory Minimum Base: Under the General Social Security Act, the minimum base for company directors and family collaborators is set at Group 7 of the General Scheme, fixed for 2026 at €1,424.40 per month.

⚠️ If your monthly bill does not reach the minimum, Social Security will regularise your situation next year and claim the accumulated difference. They could also issue right now a settlement for the differences since January (without surcharge) to bring your contribution up to date ex officio.
