Hi all,

I have been looking around on the web and in here, but I cannot find an exact answer for my question:

Back in DE we can write GST free invoices w/o being registered as a business, when we do small jobs up to a certain amount.

Am I able to write a private invoice in NZ with my IRD for "mini jobs" I am doing [w/o GST of course] without having to register for a business number? Is there an income threshhold for that? Do I simply put that in my tax return at the end of the year?

Or do I have to get a business number (as a sole trader) as soon as I want to write an invoice?

Thank you
