Artist-authors will receive their contribution call for the fourth quarter of 2026 from 1 October and have until 15 October to payUrssaf. Urssaf published the reminder on 14 September 2026.

Those who want to adjust their provisional contributions must request modulation by 30 September so that it applies to the fourth-quarter due dateUrssaf. After that date, the modulation service closes for the current year and no further request can be taken into accountUrssaf.

Modulation means asking for the amount of provisional contributions to be changed. It is open only to artist-authors who declare their income en BNC. Where the provisional instalments look too high or too low compared with actual income, the contributor can request an adjustment by stating estimated income.

The request is made from the personal account on the artistes-auteurs.urssaf.fr portal, under the contributions and payments tab, then modulation of contributions. The contributor ticks the box for their status, enters the chosen amount based on estimated annual income, and confirms. A confirmation message appears and the updated schedule can be viewed from the account. Urssaf also provides a dedicated user guide for the process.

In principle a modulation request must be filed at least fifteen days before the next due date to take effect at that date; a late request takes effect at the following quarter's due date. For the fourth-quarter 2026 due date, the modulation request must be filed by 30 September to be taken into account for that due dateUrssaf; after that date, the modulation service is closed for the current year and no request can be taken into accountUrssaf.

Payment itself is made directly from the online account on the artistes-auteurs.urssaf.fr portal, and access to the payment service opens two weeks before each deadline. Contributors who cannot see the modulation result in their online account, for example because the legal request period was exceeded, need not worry: the transmitted data is still taken into account, and an online simulator on the mon-entreprise.fr site estimates contributions from projected income.

Legal basis: the call and the modulation procedure follow the Urssaf contribution schedule for artist-authors and the modulation service rules for provisional contributions.

If you are an artist-author taxed under BNC and your instalments no longer match your income, request modulation before 30 September from your artistes-auteurs.urssaf.fr account.
