Exempt Business or Registered Business? How to Choose and What Are the Implications

One of the first questions a new business owner should ask themselves is: whether to register as an exempt business or as a registered business? This is a significant decision with tax and administrative implications.

Exempt Business

An exempt business is a business whose annual income falls below a certain threshold (the threshold changes annually according to legislation). An exempt business is exempt from VAT registration requirements, but must file an annual report with the tax authority if it has business expenses or income. The exempt business owner pays income tax on their profit but does not pay VAT and does not need to file periodic reports.

Registered Business

A registered business is a business whose income exceeds the threshold, or one that has chosen to register for VAT on a voluntary basis. A registered business pays VAT on its sales but can claim VAT refunds on business expenses. A registered business must file periodic reports (monthly or quarterly) on its VAT.

Comparison and Advantages/Disadvantages

The choice between an exempt business and a registered business depends on your specific situation. In any case, it is important to consult with an accountant who can analyze your situation and recommend the best choice. In certain circumstances, a registered business may be more advantageous because it can recover VAT on expenses; in other circumstances, an exempt business may be simpler and less costly.
