Absolutely! Your VAT ID is your personal number and isn’t tied to our platform. So even if you applied for your VAT ID through us, you can use the same number for freelance jobs outside the platform.

Business registration

Just make sure your business description stays up to date. Planning to work in a new field, like hospitality? Make sure to notify the Belastingdienst (Tax Administration) and, if necessary, the Kamer van Koophandel (Chamber of Commerce). You can find more information on the website of the Belastingdienst. Their website is available in Dutch, you can use a translation tool to translate it.
