What is this page?

This item links to a public Startium board with practical information on starting as a student self-employed. It’s designed as a checklist and memory aid: what to set up, what to track during the year and where common pitfalls are.

Who is it for?

• Students who want to start as student self-employed.
• Students who have started and want to improve their admin/threshold tracking.
• Parents/guardians assessing the impact on being fiscally dependent.

Start-up checklist (practical)

1) Check whether you meet the conditions.

2) Arrange registration and your enterprise number (incl. NACE codes).

3) Choose your VAT regime.

4) Join a social insurance fund.

5) Set up invoicing and clear agreements.

6) Basic bookkeeping and document archiving.

Tracking thresholds without stress

• Make an annual plan (revenue, costs, expected net taxable income).
• Split by income type (student job vs self-employed).
• Use scenarios (safe / on the edge / above) and plan how you’ll adjust.
• Evaluate at least quarterly.
