Self-billing explained
We invoice on your behalf — what this means.
What is self-billing?
In the Netherlands, a buyer (here: Campplek) may under conditions issue the invoice the seller (you, the host) would otherwise send. This is called self-billing, regulated by article 35 OB 1968.
Why?
Most hosts are private individuals or small businesses without invoicing software. By handling this for you:
- Renters don't need to request an invoice each booking.
- Your records are tidy for tax filing.
- We keep VAT administration compliant.
What's on it?
The invoice contains:
- Your name + address (host)
- Renter details
- Description of the item rented/sold
- Amount, VAT (if applicable), total
- Booking reference
- Text "Invoice issued by the recipient" (self-billing declaration)
Objecting
You can object within 14 days of receipt via your dashboard. If you reject the invoice, we hold the payout until resolved.
VAT-registered?
Indicate this in Settings → Tax. We then invoice including VAT (21% or 9% depending on category) and report it to the tax authority in your quarterly return.
Not VAT-registered (KOR or under threshold)? Invoice goes without VAT.
