Start-up costs – guidelines?

SD

Question

What are the guidelines for entering start-up costs? I read the article in the learning center about this, but its explanation is fairly general. Do these costs have to be incurred within a certain date before the start-up date? Does this only apply to larger investments (e.g. laptop) or can more everyday costs (e.g. public transport) also be claimed, provided they have a clear link to the professional activity?

I am not subject to VAT, so for clarity’s sake, I am only talking about the tax deduction of those costs.

I would include them all... But I don't think there is a defined legal framework for small expenses only from then on, for large expenses from 2 years, I think? (Not sure though).

But everyday expenses, if they are not too long before you start your activities, I would definitely still do it. In the context of: in preparation for my self-employed activity, I took public transport to supplier X or customer Y. It seems feasible to me, especially in terms of claiming expenses.
