The Netherlands Tax Administration (Belastingdienst) assesses working relationships; if a zzp'er (self-employed professional) does not meet entrepreneurship conditions, they face additional tax assessments, repayment of tax benefits, and potential fines. Clients may owe payroll tax, pension contributions, and fines. From 1 January 2025, unintentional false self-employment triggers retroactive assessments; intentional cases can be backdated further. Model agreements remain valid until 2029 but do not guarantee protection. A new Self-Employment Act (Zelstandigenwet) is announced for 1 January 2028, introducing two tests for self-employment and a special commission.
