Social Security – Contracting Entities

Entities are considered contracting entities if they are legal persons or individuals engaged in business activities, regardless of their nature or objectives, that, within the same calendar year, pay more than 50% of the total income earned by a self-employed worker.

The contribution obligation for contracting entities arises when Social Security determines and officially communicates the value of the services provided to them. The deadline for contracting entities to pay their contributions to Social Security is by the 20th of the month following the notification. Failure to meet this deadline may result in the imposition of penalties as well as late payment interest, in accordance with the law.
