3. Earning a higher income

, Recent government policies around self-employment
Taxes:
- Self-employed people pay less taxes than regular workers in the Netherlands. They pay taxes
over their profit and that tax rate is lower than the tax rate on regular salaries. The self-
employed also receive a reduction for the first part of their profits.
Insurance:
- Many self-employed are not insured for a loss of income as a result of disability, illness or
unemployment. They also cannot charge a higher price to their customers to compensate for
these extra costs.
- Therefore, there is a mandatory disability insurance for all the self-employed to prevent this loss
of income.
How to start a company?
The role of the chamber of Commerce (Kamer van Koophandel)
- If you have an own business you have to be registered at the Chamber of Commerce.
- The chamber of commerce has three tasks:
1. Maintain an administration of all registered companies
2. Give advice to new and existing entrepreneurs. Think about how to get a loan from a bank, how
to hire personnel, how to sell products and services online or how to do business abroad.
3. Organize regional events where entrepreneurs can meet each other while being informed on
recent topics.
The business plan
- Before you start an own business you want to have a solid plan. This plan involves 5
components:
1. Making a personal plan
2. Choosing a form of enterprise
3. Making a marketing plan
4. Making a financial plan
5. Taking care of administration, insurance and permits.
Personal plan
- Mostly looking at yourself and thinking what knowledge and skills to I have? What
characteristics do I have?
Choosing a form of enterprise
Legal entity = An individual, company or organization that has legal rights and obligations
- So when a company is a legal entity it can buy and sell products, get a loan, hire personnel or get
engaged in a rental contract. It also pays taxes and can be held accountable.
Bankruptcy (faillissement) = When a company is not able anymore to meet its financial obligations.
Sole tradership (eenmanszaak) and general partnership (Vennootschap) – not legal entities
- Not all companies are legal entities, and often when people start a company they chose not to
be one.
- When a company is not a legal entity, the owner is engaged in contracts, pay taxes and held
accountable for any debts if the company goes bankrupt.
