Accountant for the creative sector

An accountant with experience in the creative sector

As a creative entrepreneur, you often deal with fluctuating income, investments in equipment and collaborations with clients. At SMG Administratie we think along with you about how to correctly process this in your administration.

Creative entrepreneurs have their own way of working. Think of investments in equipment and software, income from copyright, collaborations with clients and months with fluctuating turnover. We have experience with this side of entrepreneurship and help you keep this organised in your bookkeeping.

Are you a photographer, videographer, designer, tattoo artist or artist? We take care of your complete administration, from invoicing to VAT returns and annual accounts, tailored to how you work.

We work for creative entrepreneurs in Zaandam, Amsterdam, Purmerend and across the Netherlands, fully online via our app.

Frequently asked questions

Questions from creative entrepreneurs

Can I fully deduct my equipment?
Business equipment can be tax-deductible under certain conditions. Depending on the purchase price and use, a purchase is sometimes processed directly as a cost and sometimes depreciated over several years. We look together with you at what applies to your purchase.
How is income from copyright or royalties taxed?
The tax and VAT treatment of royalties depends on the nature of the payment and your situation. We help assess how this income should be processed in the administration.
What if my income fluctuates strongly per month?
That's normal in creative professions. We keep track for you of how much you should set aside for tax, even in months with little turnover.
