Specifically for upholsterers
What we pay extra attention to for upholsterers.
Materials per project
We link your purchases of fabrics and flooring to projects, so you see what each job brings in.
Working for shops and contractors
If you work for home furnishings stores or contractors, we assess for each assignment whether the VAT should be reverse-charged.
Van and tools
Your van and tools can count towards the investment allowance.
Costs we often see for upholsterers.
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).
