Who should fill out Form TA 0521 and how?

Self-employed professionals must process a series of forms throughout their activity. Public institutions such as the Tax Agency or Social Security are the ones to which you must deliver the largest volume of documents. One of those documents is Form TA 0521, which has different versions depending on the type of self-employed worker you are.

The form itself is a declaration of the start or end of your activity within the Régimen Especial de Trabajadores Autónomos (RETA) and can be delivered to the Provincial Directorate of the General Treasury of Social Security or online, accessing with your digital certificate or using Cl@ve.

The additional documentation that the self-employed worker must provide when submitting this form is their DNI or Passport, their work permit if necessary, and the original and copy of any document that proves the origin of the registration, withdrawal, or modification of data.

In addition, if it is a self-incorporated worker, the original and a copy of the deed of incorporation of the company must be provided.
