What is it?
The tax calculator in SmartWerk gives an indicative estimate of your net income and of the VAT you have to pay.
Estimate freelance tax and VAT: net income and quarterly VAT
Invoicing & admin
Estimate your net income after income tax and your VAT per quarter, separately, using the turnover from your own invoices.
Start free, no credit card needed.
Who is it for?
For freelancers who want to know what they keep and how much to set aside, without loose spreadsheets.

Does the calculator account for the KOR?
Yes, indicatively. You see whether you stay under the turnover limit of the small business scheme.
