It is not necessary to have a KvK number to work as a freelance deliverer. A newspaper deliverer only needs to register with the Chamber of Commerce (KvK) if they are an entrepreneur and starting a business. The deliverer registers their sole proprietorship, partnership, or other legal form with the Chamber of Commerce and immediately receives a KvK number. The KvK forwards the details to the Tax Authority (Belastingdienst). The Tax Authority then assesses whether the deliverer qualifies as an entrepreneur for VAT and income tax purposes. The deliverer will receive their VAT identification number and a turnover tax number by letter from the Tax Authority. The VAT identification number is stated on invoices to Mediahuis Distributie B.V. The deliverer receives the invoice (including VAT) by email and can include it in their administration.
