Specifically for interior designers
What we pay extra attention to for interior designers.
Advice and resale
We split your revenue from advice and from resold products, so you see what you earn per project.
Supplier commissions
If you receive commissions from suppliers, we record them correctly and make sure the VAT is right.
Showroom or home office
If you work from a studio or showroom, rent and fit-out are deductible. If you work from home, we look at what is possible for tax purposes.
Costs we often see for interior designers.
Business expenses reduce your profit and therefore your tax. We make sure they are booked correctly and, where possible, that you make use of the investment deduction (investeringsaftrek).

- Design software
- Showroom or studio
- Travel to clients
- Trade fairs and trade magazines

FAQ
Frequently asked questions from interior designers
How do I invoice products I buy for a client?+
You pass them on with VAT and record the purchase as a cost. We make sure you see your margin per project.
Are supplier commissions taxable?+
Yes, commissions are revenue. You usually charge VAT on them. We process them correctly.
Do I need a BV as an interior designer?+
Not necessarily. At a lower profit level, a sole proprietorship (eenmanszaak) is often more advantageous. We calculate the tipping point for you.
Am I tied to a contract as an interior designer?+
No. Your subscription can be cancelled monthly and you pay a fixed monthly fee, with no hourly billing.
Can I switch halfway through the year?+
Yes. We arrange the handover with your current accountant, including history, opening balance and ongoing tax returns.
