No, if you do not have a VAT ID, you do not have to pay tax yet. If you have just requested your VAT ID from the Tax Authorities, it may take some time before you receive it. As long as you do not have a VAT ID, you do not have to remit tax. You can work three gigs via YoungOnes without a VAT ID.
You should keep the following in mind:
Turnover tax (VAT return) This tax only applies if you are in possession of a VAT ID. Without a VAT ID, you have not received any VAT and therefore do not have to remit it. If you use the KOR scheme, you do not have to file a VAT return.
Income tax You must always file this tax when you receive money for work performed. The gigs you worked without a VAT ID (your first three gigs) must therefore be reported on your income tax return as ‘income from other work’ (inkomsten uit overig werk).
Did you have a VAT ID during your first three gigs? Then the ‘with a VAT ID’ situation mentioned above applies.
