At the beginning of January 2025, I will send an invoice to a customer for services provided in December 2024. Will this still count as income in 2024 or will it already be income for 2025? I would prefer this to be income from the year 2024 because I am still well below the limit for child benefit, for example, which is likely to be much tighter next year.
If you issue an invoice with a date in 2025, this counts as income for 2025.
If you want to include this in your 2024 accounts, you must invoice it by 31/12/2024 at the latest.

Does this also apply to the expenses you have incurred? For example, I made a purchase and payment on 30/12/2024, but the invoice states 2/1/2025. Can this be entered in the same way as the above income?
You really should try it out for yourself. Even if you don’t have a company number yet, you can already go ahead.
