Most Dutch invoicing and bookkeeping apps are built for Dutch speakers. If you freelance in the Netherlands in English, the first question is whether the app actually works in English - then whether invoicing is free, whether it files your VAT (BTW) return and what extras like a mileage log cost. Below is a comparison based on the vendors' own pricing pages, checked on 29 October 2026.
| App | English interface | Free plan | Cheapest paid (per month) | Trial | Files VAT return | Mileage log |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ProFaktura | yes (+ 8 other languages) | yes, unlimited invoices and credit notes | Pro € 9.99 excl. VAT | 30 days (Pro) | no - gives the amounts per box | yes, GPS in the background (Pro) |
| Moneybird | yes | no (since 1 July 2026) | Compact € 4 (€ 3 billed yearly), 1 invoice/month; Start € 18 (€ 15 yearly) | 60 days | yes, from Start | not stated |
| Tellow | yes | 3 invoices/month | Basis € 14.99 excl. VAT (€ 12.99 yearly) | none, 14-day money-back | from Plus | yes, GPS not stated |
| Jortt | web yes, app Dutch only | Starter: unlimited invoices and quotes, no bookkeeping | ZZP € 21.95 excl. VAT (€ 19.95 yearly) | 30 days | yes, from ZZP | no |

Monthly prices as shown by each vendor on 29 October 2026. Moneybird, Tellow and WeFact show the yearly-billing price by default; that price is in brackets. "Not stated" means the vendor does not mention it on its site - not that the feature is missing. Moneybird and e-Boekhouden do not say whether their plan prices include VAT. Prices change: check with the vendor before you choose.
Moneybird and Tellow are the established bookkeeping apps with an English interface. Informer also has English (and German and Spanish). Jortt is English on the web, but its mobile app is Dutch only. e-Boekhouden is Dutch only. ProFaktura works fully in English and in eight other languages, and your invoices can go out in English or Dutch - whatever your client prefers.
Choose a full bookkeeping app with VAT filing and a bank feed: Moneybird from Start, Tellow from Plus, Jortt from ZZP, Informer or e-Boekhouden (Dutch only). Watch the limits on the cheapest plans.
Then a full bookkeeping package is money you do not need to spend. Unlimited free invoicing is available in ProFaktura and in Jortt Starter. ProFaktura gives your accountant free access of their own, and if they use Exact Online your invoices arrive there as draft entries with the PDF attached (for accountants).
In most apps you type in your trips. ProFaktura Pro records trips with GPS in the background, even with the screen off; afterwards you only mark them business or private. Informer can record automatically with a separate box in the car (TrackJack).
From 1 July 2030 e-invoicing becomes mandatory for business-to-business invoices. Sending through the Peppol network is already possible in, among others, Moneybird, Jortt, Informer, WeFact and eFaktura. ProFaktura creates a Peppol-compliant UBL file for every invoice that you can attach yourself; sending through the network itself is not built in yet. Tellow lists UBL as "coming soon".
Does: invoices and credit notes free and unlimited, Dutch VAT rules (21/9/0%, reverse charge, KOR, EU supplies, export), recurring invoices, e-invoices (UBL, Peppol), invoices in 5 languages. With Pro (30 days free, then € 9.99 excl. VAT per month): GPS mileage log, receipt scanning, quotes, client list, logo, quarterly VAT overview, accountant access and the Exact Online link.
Does not: no bank feed and no VAT filing from the app - you get the amounts per box, then file in Mijn Belastingdienst Zakelijk or let your accountant do it.

Moneybird, Tellow, Informer, WeFact, SmartWerk, eFaktura and ProFaktura have an English interface. Jortt is English on the web only, and e-Boekhouden is Dutch only (vendor pages, 29 October 2026).
Yes. ProFaktura and Jortt Starter let you invoice without a limit for € 0. Tellow (3 invoices a month) and SmartWerk (10 a month) have free plans with limits. Moneybird no longer has a free plan since 1 July 2026.
Yes. Dutch law does not prescribe a language for invoices, but the Belastingdienst may ask for a translation. The invoice must still contain all Dutch invoice requirements, such as your KVK number and VAT ID.
Only if you want to file from the app. Many freelancers enter the amounts in Mijn Belastingdienst Zakelijk themselves or let an accountant file. In that case invoicing software with a clear quarterly overview is enough.
From 1 July 2030 e-invoices become mandatory for business-to-business invoices in the Netherlands. Choose software that already creates UBL invoices in the Peppol format and is working towards sending through the network.
