When do I need to unregister from the MEI and leave it?

TF inter · July 07, 2026

You leave the MEI when you grow too big for this setup. The common reasons are: going over the revenue limit, hiring more than one employee, or becoming a partner or owner of another company. At that point the MEI no longer fits and you migrate to another regime. This step can feel scary, but it's a sign that the business is working. Those who export to the Americas tend to grow fast and reach this point. TF inter handles this transition with you. We choose the next setup and manage the change without stopping your sales.
