]] Tax deductible?

In some cases, the costs of participating in PRO are tax deductible as study costs or business investment:

  • For independent creators, producers or business leaders:

Participation in PRO may fall under professional development and is therefore deductible as a business expense (such as training, networking or industry development). Always keep your invoice or proof of payment.

  • For salaried employees:

Ask your employer if there is a budget for professional development. They can often cover or claim the costs.

Note: study costs are no longer deductible for individuals (without a company) since 2022.

]] How to order tickets?
  1. Go to www.ntfpro.nl and click on ‘Tickets’.
  2. Choose your programme components.
  3. Apply a discount code if applicable.
  4. Complete your order in the webshop.

Please note: you cannot cancel tickets after purchase, but you can order additional tickets.
