Currently we only have costs and when we pay taxes over profits in the future I assume I can deduct (some of the) costs I'm currently having (computer, courses, research) but I have no idea to what extent.

Tip: kosten aftrekken van de belasting
Het geld dat je met Google Adsense verdient is bruto. Of je nu een bedrijf hebt, of als particulier wat bijverdient, je moet er belasting over betalen. Als particulier moet je de inkomsten als "Opbrengsten uit overige werkzaamheden" aangeven. Als je een bedrijf hebt is de betaling van Google jouw omzet en betaal je belasting over de winst.

Je mag de "aftrekbare kosten" aftrekken. Daarvoor gelden voor een groot deel de regels voor de kosten van een onderneming. Het gaat in principe alle kosten die je maakt om de inkomsten te verdienen. Daar valt bijvoorbeeld de webhosting en domeinregistratie onder. Maar misschien kun je bij de belastingdienst aannemelijk maken dat je je PC en Internet-abonnement vooral gebruikt om geld te verdienen met je website. Dan mag je ook de aanschafprijs (gespreid over een paar jaar) en abonnementskosten aftrekken. Bewaar in ieder geval alle facturen en bonnen.

Can anyone who is already making money online or has knowledge/experience with this share this in this thread?

Kan ik voorlopig als particulier dit doen of moet ik toch naar het KVK (en dan registeren als wat eigenlijk...?)?

Below some background information (from 2006 but that does not matter in this case.. I guess):

Ik zal gewoon naar het KvK gaan. Kost je 80 euro per jaar en je hebt meteen de 1e 3 jaar starters voordeel. en dat kan oplopen tot ruim 8 duizend euro! Dit heeft mijn accountant allemaal netjes geregeld voor mij. Aangezien ik nu bijna 3 jaar mijn bedrijfje heb zet ik het om naar een BV. Dan heb je weer andere voordelen. Mijn advies is: Just do it!

Success,
Attila

Attila,

I'm pretty close to ignorant on this subject so can you help me fill in the blancs.

As I understood you do not get 'subsidie' but you get to a tax reduction from your revenue.
First year more than second and a small amount in the third year.
So.. when you are not making any revenue (yet), you cannot profit from this deduction..right? (since you don't pay taxes when you don't have income, so nothing to reduce when it's already just zero).

I have been registered with the KvK for 5 years now as a freelancer in an 'eenmanszaak'. It is just my weekend job since I am still full time employed by a large corporation.

I was adviced to quit the 'eenmanszaak' and start using the 'opbrengsten uit overige werkzaamheden' option since I am not making enough money out of it to really be a self employed business.

Someone else told me that after 5 years the belasting gets nasty and can come over and do an 'inval' to check out your books and everything. So I am not sure what to do now. Changing it into a BV is not really an option to me at the moment.

Why don't you use the 'New Reply' button underneath instead of the 'Reply' button within every message? If you answer someone directly under their post you do not need to quote the complete message.

I don't really get your question and I'm not an "expert" on this subject.
What I DO know is this.
The first 3 years If you work more than 1250 hours a year for yourself as a company then you have an extra 8K tax reduction from the dutch government when you pay taxes.
Normally here in Holland the first 17 K you don't pay tax. From there you start to pay tax. However in my case I had another 8K what was not taxed. So you as an employee start to pay from 17K and I start to pay from 25K. How cool is that? I think it's pretty cool! (http://www.belastingdienst.nl/variabel/b...en-19.html)
For that alone I'd pay 80 Euro's at the KvK and get back +- 8000 from taxes. If you want a real good financial adviser who takes care of my financial things I can send you a email trough PM and you can ask him a few questions. Remember, I'm an "avoider" and I concentrate on other things. Never thought about the ins and outs. As long as everything is taken care of I'm happy and continue with making money and reinvest.
