Hello,
My name is Alexandru and I am a student. I hold an EU citizenship, so I don't need any visa permits. Since April of this year, I have been employed by a United States-based customer, commuting between full-time and part-time. My relationship between me and them is that of a contractor-client, with multiple clauses in the contract that stipulate we explicitly do not enter an employment agreement. I'm working just for them, for an indefinite period of time. I am not representing any legal entity and, as per my understanding from the KVK's website, I am required to declare my income as additional income and complete a form at the beginning of next year. Is this true? Can I operate in this way - no legal entity, just a regular person that is doing a 2h/day contract, declaring ALL revenue at the beginning of next year!?
Upon reviewing the KVK website recently, I discovered that I should quarterly file VAT!? I honestly do not understand if I should or not, because I don't represent any legal entity. I do not deduct costs on my revenue. It's just that I receive some money bi-weekly. I anticipate a turnover of less than $8,000 this year, so really, this is a student working part-time.
Could you tell me if I should pay VAT or no? What exactly do I need to declare - just my additional income at the beginning of next year? I called to KVK multiple times, but different operators tell me different things.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. Excuse me for not writing this in dutch, but I believe the translation would have missed on some important details.
Sincerely,
Alexandru
