CREATING AND MANAGING A SELF-EMPLOYED BUSINESS
Becoming self-employed in Israel requires opening three administrative files:
VAT, Income Tax, and National Insurance (Bituach Leumi).
We handle all procedures on your behalf and advise you on the most advantageous choices based on your profile and sector.

TVA (MA’AM) – מע״מ
In Israel, each independent worker is classified under one of two tax statuses:
Ossek Patour – עוסק פטור
• For professionals with revenue below a yearly threshold (e.g., ₪120,000 in 2024)
• No VAT invoicing to clients
• Reduced accounting obligations but mandatory annual reporting
Ossek Mourché – עוסק מורשה
• For those exceeding the threshold or in regulated professions
• Must invoice VAT and file monthly or bi-monthly reports
• Greater accounting duties but eligibility to reclaim VAT on business expenses
We advise you on the most suitable status and manage your VAT reporting.
INCOME TAX (MASS HAHNASSA) – מס הכנסה
As a self-employed person, you are required to:
• Submit an annual personal tax return
• Include your spouse’s income if under the same tax household
• Pay your tax through monthly or bi-monthly advance payments
We handle your yearly tax declaration and optimize deductible expenses to minimize your tax burden.
SOCIAL SECURITY (BITUACH LEUMI) – ביטוח לאומי
Enrollment in National Insurance is mandatory as soon as your activity begins:
• Contributions are calculated based on estimated income and adjusted by hours worked
• At year-end, a recalculation is made: Overpayment = refund / Underpayment = regularization
We assist you with forecasts, declarations, and direct coordination with Bituach Leumi.
