Provisional tax return
Individual tax return
If you earn money when you live in the Netherlands, you are required to pay taxes on your income. You have to declare your income through your annual tax return (from the 1st of March to 1st of May). Usually, your employer withholds your income tax monthly from your salary. However, often, you still have to file your income tax return. The tax return can be complicated, especially at fiscal moments. Think of buying a house and your migration to or out of the Netherlands. It is important that the tax return is filed correctly. We will file a complete tax return for you and ensure that we include all deducible items, so you never pay too much or too little tax!
Migration tax return
If you moved to the Netherlands and paid taxes in your country of origin, you are required to file a migration tax return (also called the M-form) if you are going to work here. You are obliged to arrange that according to the Dutch tax regulations. The Dutch tax office (De Belastingdienst) needs information about you and with the M-form you can provide that to them. Most expats will receive a tax refund because they didn’t live in the Netherlands for the whole year and therefore paid too much income tax.
Buying a house in the Netherlands
Did you buy your own house? Congratulations! This affects your income tax return. The Dutch tax office charges a fictive amount on your income for your new house, the notional rental value (eigenwoningforfait). But you can also deduct extra costs from your income. Think of financing costs (e.g., the costs of a mortgage advisor), mortgage interest, and ground lease. Also, re-mortgaging or switching to another mortgage provider has consequences for your income tax return. In this case, it may be wise to engage a tax advisor.
Provisional tax return
Have you paid a lot of mortgage interest, made healthcare costs or other deductible expenses, and do you want to receive the tax refund in advance? Then it is useful to request a provisional assessment. But also if you know that you have to pay an amount to the tax authorities, a provisional tax return ensures that you can pay this amount in advance spread over the remaining months of the year. This prevents you from paying the amount in one go next year. We help you with applying for a provisional assessment and take this completely off your hands.
30% ruling
Do you come to the Netherlands especially for work? If you meet all the conditions, you may apply for the 30% ruling to compensate for the so-called extraterritorial costs. This arrangement also affects your income tax. Your Dutch employer may reimburse 30% of your wages tax-free. Moreover, you do not have to state your savings and investments when filing the income tax return (except when it comes to Dutch real estate).
