<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The question always comes in the same form. I can perform the same work under an employment contract or by invoicing as a self-employed individual, and I want to know which is cheaper. The answer depends on three figures: income tax, contributions, and the cost borne by the payer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This page compares the figures for two income levels, clearly separates employer costs from employee costs, and shows the legal threshold beyond which the choice is no longer free, because billing is reclassified as employment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do you make a proper comparison?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The comparison is made on the same annual gross income, because only then are the figures comparable. You don't compare net pay with the gross bill, because they don't measure the same thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the form of wages, income tax on employment and the employee's contribution are deducted from the gross amount, while the employer adds its own contribution. In the form of self-employment, income tax on business activity is deducted from the invoice\u2014which until December 31, 2029 is 0% on amounts below 1,400,000 lek\u2014and contributions on the minimum base, while the payer adds nothing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The social contributions base is capped. As of January 1, 2026, the monthly maximum is 186,416 lek\u00eb, so the following comparisons have been made under this cap to keep the figures readable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Comparison for 1,200,000 lek per year<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Let's assume an annual gross income of 1,200,000 lek, which is 100,000 lek per month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

As an employee, the gross salary is 1,200,000 lek\u00eb, the standard deduction is 360,000 lek\u00eb, the taxable base is 840,000 lek\u00eb, and the 13% tax yields 109,200 lek\u00eb. Employee contributions at 11.21% on 1,200,000 lek\u00eb amount to 134,400 lek\u00eb, so the net pay is 956,400 lek\u00eb. The employer adds 16.71%, i.e., 200,400 lek, and the total cost becomes 1,400,400 lek.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\n

As a self-employed individual, my turnover is 1,200,000 lek, below the 14,000,000 lek threshold, so the tax is 0 lek until December 31, 2029. The 3.41% health contribution on the amount above 100,000 lek gives 3,400 lek per month, or 40,800 lek per year, leaving 1,159,200 lek before the social security contribution on the 50,000 lek base. The client pays the 1,200,000-lek\u00eb invoice and there are no additional costs.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Comparison for 2,160,000 lek per year<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At higher levels the gap widens, because income tax and employment contributions increase along with wages, while the self-employment contribution remains fixed at the minimum base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Salary or self-employment: 2,160,000 lek per year<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

With an annual salary of 2,160,000 lek, or 180,000 lek per month, the wage provides a taxable base of 1,800,000 lek after the standard deduction of 360,000 lek, and the 13% tax yields 234,000 lek. The employee's 11.21% contribution amounts to 241,920 lek\u00eb, leaving a net of 1,684,080 lek\u00eb. The employer adds 360,720 lek\u00eb, bringing the cost to 2,520,720 lek\u00eb. As a self-employed individual, the payer saves 360,720 lek\u00eb and ends up with 435,120 lek\u00eb more before social security contributions.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The difference doesn't come from a trick. It comes from the fact that self-employed contributions are calculated on fixed minimum bases, while employment contributions are calculated on the actual wage, and from the 0% rate that applies through December 31, 2029.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Risk of requalification<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The savings disappear the moment the relationship is treated as employment. When 80 percent of income comes from a single client, or 90 percent from fewer than three clients, the law provides for reclassification of the income as employment income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The consequence isn't just the unpaid tax. Employer contributions also arise, and late fees and penalties are added on, so saving for a few years can turn into an obligation for a single assessment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Attention. Law No. 81\/2025, published in January 2026, changed the treatment of hidden employment. The exact content of the change and the application of the thresholds thereafter need to be verified. UNVERIFIED, must be confirmed before publication. The 80% and 90% thresholds of Article 12 of Law No. 29\/2023 have been verified.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

When each form makes sense<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Numbers don't make the decision. A salary provides a full pension based on what's been paid, labor code rights, paid leave, protection in case of layoff, and stability against banks. Self-employment offers flexibility, lower costs through 2029, and opportunities for many clients, but it leaves the individual responsible for insurance, invoicing, reporting, and the risk of re-qualification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2714 Pay is meaningful when the work is done for a single client, according to their schedule and instructions.
\u2714 Pay has meaning when an individual needs a full contributory history for a pension or loan.
\u2714 Self-employment makes sense when clients are three or more and the contracts are independent.
\u2714 Self-employment makes sense when the individual sets their own schedule, tools, and working methods.
\u2714 Self-employment makes sense when income fluctuates, because the fixed cost remains low.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our practical recommendation is this. If you are actually working for a single client, an employment relationship is the fairest and safest form. If the request comes from three or more clients, self-employment is the natural form and the savings are legitimate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The mistakes we see<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The net pay is compared to the gross invoice, and self-employment is artificially made to look better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The employer cost is forgotten, so businesses think that a monthly salary of 100,000 lek costs 1,200,000 lek per year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The transition from being an employee to self-employment is made with the same employer and the same schedule, that is, with every element of the employment relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The savings are considered permanent, while the 0% rate on income from operations expires on December 31, 2029.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pension is not taken into account because the self-employed person's contribution is paid on the minimum basis and not on actual earnings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The service contract is copied from an employment contract, and the text of the contract itself proves the dependency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The invoice is issued without taxation, and the business client does not recognize the expense, so the individual's savings become the client's problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Wage or self-employment, which is more beneficial?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Until December 31, 2029, self-employment is cheaper for both parties, because the tax on business income is 0% under 14,000,000 lek\u00eb in turnover and contributions are paid on a minimal basis. The condition is that the relationship must be genuinely independent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How much does a monthly salary of 100,000 lek\u00eb cost the employer?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The total cost is 1,400,400 lek\u00eb per year, i.e., a gross salary of 1,200,000 lek\u00eb plus the employer's contribution of 16.71%, which amounts to 200,400 lek\u00eb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What's the net amount from a gross salary of 1,200,000 lek\u00eb per year?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

956,400 lek remain, after tax 109,200 lek and employee contribution 134,400 lek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How much is left of a 1,200,000-lek invoice as a self-employed person?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Tax is 0 lek until December 31, 2029, the health contribution is 40,800 lek per year, so 1,159,200 lek remain before the social security contribution on a 50,000 lek base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will I lose my pension if I go self-employed?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The self-employed contributor's contribution is calculated on the minimum wage, that is, on a lower base than the actual wage, so the effect on the future pension is smaller. For the evaluation of the periods and the base, please write to us with your history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I work for a single client. Does self-employment put me at risk?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Yes. When 80% of the income comes from a single client, or 90% from fewer than three clients, the law provides for reclassification as employment income, with employer contributions arising alongside the tax.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What changes after 2029?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Rate 0% expires on December 31, 2029. As of January 1, 2030, business income is taxed at 15% up to 14,000,000 lek, making expense documentation and method selection financially sensitive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can I have both a salary and self-employment at the same time?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Yes. Employment income is taxed through the agent, the activity is reported on the annual return, and when the total exceeds 1,200,000 lek\u00eb, DIVA is also filed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
