From 2026, you can no longer work as a freelancer like you do now.

Make sure the tax authority sees you as an entrepreneur. Not as an employee.

THE PROBLEM

Most freelancers are working illegally without knowing it. From 2026, that will be punished hard.

Image

Unclear regulations

You think you're doing fine, while the rules may say otherwise.

Image

Risk of false self-employment

Is your work set up incorrectly? It could be classified as employment.

Image

Fines & uncertainty

Problems only surface afterwards — when it's already too late.

This is what happens if you do nothing

Image

€20,000 fine. Per violation.

Not your client. You're the one who pays.

Image

Pay back taxes on everything

On every invoice you ever sent. Retroactively.

Image

Your freelancer status? Gone.

You get reclassified as an employee. Without seeing it coming.

The DBA Act explained

It's not about what you agree on, but what you can prove.

Without documentation, you can't prove you're an entrepreneur.

Your work stays the same. The rules don't.

From 2026, this will be actively enforced.

THE SOLUTION

Work as an entrepreneur within a demonstrable structure

WorkChain provides a legal and operational framework in which you actually work as an entrepreneur.

You set your own rate
You set your own schedule
You work based on results

No authority. No embedding.

Assurance

Your self-employment is not just agreed upon, but documented.

Without this assurance, you cannot prove you are an entrepreneur.

Why you can't do this yourself

You are part of the collaboration yourself. This means you can never objectively prove that you are an entrepreneur. Self-employment is not just about how you work, but about how this is assessed and documented.

You are part of the collaboration yourself

A personal statement has no evidential value

The assessment happens afterwards

Structural documentation is missing

That's why independent assurance is essential.
