What's included
We tell you whether Dutch gift tax applies and file the return for you, on time. You see a draft and approve it before we file. No surprises afterwards. Usually the receiver files. We arrange that for you or the donor.
A gift is more than money. Think of money, a car, a house or shares. Anything of value you receive for nothing in return counts. The Dutch tax authority (the Belastingdienst) may expect a gift tax return.
Not every gift leads to tax. In 2026 a parent can give a child up to €6,908 tax-free. The annual exemption for anyone else is €2,769. There is also a one-off raised exemption: €33,129 free to spend for a child between 18 and 40, or €69,009 toward an expensive study. Above the exemption, gift tax runs from 10% (partner or child) to 40% (other receivers). Anyone using the raised one-off exemption must always file a return to claim it.
Where to start
The most common gift situations we file for. Don't see yours? Get your personal price and we'll tell you if Dutch gift tax applies.
Money or support from family in another country. We work out whether the donor's residence triggers Dutch gift tax. A Dutch national who gave within 10 years of leaving still owes it. A non-Dutch donor only counts within a year of leaving.

“A gift from abroad worries people most. Did I trigger Dutch tax? Am I too late? My job is to tell you exactly where you stand, then file it correctly and on time.”

Making a gift as partners or planning a gift on paper? We price that in the same conversation.
We agree your fee in writing before we start. A standard gift tax return starts at €250 incl. VAT. A cross-border or business gift gets its own quote before any work starts. Never a surprise bill.
The hard parts are the ones you can't see. Is the gift taxable at all? Which country taxes it? And the 1 March deadline. Here is the difference.
Why together works
A gift toward a house touches your mortgage. A gift on paper touches your estate. Our associated company, a separate licensed advice firm, advises on mortgage, insurance and pension. We handle the tax in the same conversation.
Rosalie · Amsterdam
My parents live in Belgium and helped with the deposit on our first flat. TaxSavers filed the gift tax return and connected me with a mortgage advisor in the same conversation.
Gerrit · Utrecht
My children live abroad and I wanted to give them something now. We set up a gift on paper and the return together.
Diego · Rotterdam
Family abroad sent money toward our wedding. I had no idea it could be taxed here. One call confirmed it wasn't, and we filed to be safe.
