I went a whole month without selling anything. Do I still have to pay the Simples Nacional?

With no revenue, that month's DAS (the monthly tax slip) usually comes out at zero, because the tax is calculated on what you sell. But heads up: even when your business is inactive, it still has other monthly obligations to submit to the government. Failing to file, even with no sales, results in a fine. A lot of people fall into this trap. TF Con handles these filings for you every month, with or without revenue. That way your CNPJ (business tax ID) always stays regular and clean. If a specific case comes up, we confirm the current rule before doing anything.
