What is the difference between MEI and Simples Nacional?

TF Assessor · July 07, 2026

The MEI is the simplest version, for those who work alone and earn up to R$ 81 mil per year. They pay a fixed amount per month. The Simples Nacional serves larger companies, with revenue of up to R$ 4,8 milhões per year. There, the tax comes out of a calculation on the revenue. When the MEI exceeds the limit, it migrates to the Simples Nacional. TF Assessor shows which format is best for your current stage.
