Dutch Tax System
The Dutch tax system is, as any other system, a complex maze of rules and exemptions to rules. However, we will be happy to navigate you through this. Our motto is that there are no stupid questions! Are you worried about our costs? We give you a quote after a free 15 minute assessment. No strings attached.
As a non-resident, you will generally only be taxable in the Netherlands on your Dutch source income. By moving to the Netherlands you will generally attain resident taxpayer status. This means that you will also be taxable based on your residency. If there is income from other states a tax treaty will avoid you from paying tax twice. The Netherlands has tax treaties with about 100 other states.

Besides tax, there is also something called social security contributions. Sociale security contributions are coordinated among the EU member states and with some countries the Netherlands has social security treaties to avoid double insurance (and contributing). We will be able to structure this as well.
Do I still need to report if the employer already deducted tax in the pay roll?
A question often asked. Especially in case someone didn't receive a so-called 'blue tax envelope'. The answer is not so simple, because it depends on wether you have anything to report 'that could lead to an additional tax levy of 48 euros'. To find that out you are often forced to simply report. You can also file if you are entitled to a tax rebate of at least 16 euros. Rebates are not given automatically.

Another relevant question. The answer is again not so simple. In 2021 the deadline was 8 may (this seems to change annually). Luckily, you can always ask for an extension. If you apply for the extension before the deadline, you will normally get one until September 1. If you want to ask for a tax rebate, you can do that until 5 years back.
