Which taxes do I need to deal with when working via Temper?

The taxes you need to pay depend on the type of shift you work: employed or freelance. There are two types of taxes you may need to deal with.

Income tax

Income tax applies to both employed and freelance shifts. You file your income tax return once a year.

• Employed shift: Temper withholds and pays your income tax on your behalf. Use your annual statement from your financial overview when filing your tax return.
• Freelance shift: You are responsible for paying your own income tax. It's a good idea to set aside part of your earnings throughout the year so you're prepared when it's time to file.

VAT return

VAT returns only apply to freelance shifts, unless you are enrolled in the Small Businesses Scheme (KOR). If you use the KOR, you do not need to file VAT returns.

VAT returns are filed every quarter. The deadlines are:

• 30 April
• 31 July
• 31 October
• 31 January

Tip: download the app Btw-Alert offered by the Belastingdienst and always receive a reminder when you have to declare your VAT.
