Welcome to Hartmanova.eu: Your guide to hassle-free tax declarations in the Netherlands.
In the Netherlands, income is taxed progressively. The tax class and levy amount depend on income. The amount of tax and insurance contributions in 2023 is as follows:
| Tax class | % tax + social insurance |
|---|---|
| <= €73.032 | 36,93% |
| €73.033 => | 49,50% |
Advances are deducted from your income on a monthly basis by your Dutch employer. The amount of advances is calculated from the average annual income. In addition, various tax rebates apply. These are different for each person; it depends, among other things, on whether you are a resident or non-resident taxpayer, how long you worked in the Netherlands and whether you still had income outside the Netherlands.
You may be entitled to a tax refund from the Netherlands if:
- you have not worked in the Netherlands for the entire tax year (from 1.1. to 31.12.)
- you were employed part-time
- you changed jobs during the tax year
- you worked in two jobs at the same time
