Pension contributions
Money set aside today, with a tax break, to build your own retirement pot.
Beyond the mandatory social contributions, self-employed people and directors can voluntarily fund extra pension schemes such as VAPZ or IPT. These contributions are typically deductible or tax-favoured today, in exchange for the capital being taxed — usually gently — only when it is eventually paid out at retirement.
In the worked example
On the worked example for a freelancer in Netherlands with €115,500 of revenue, this line comes to €1,800.
