Living and working in the Netherlands brings new responsibilities when it comes to taxes. As an expat, freelancer, or international professional, understanding Dutch tax rules can be challenging—especially if you have income or assets in multiple countries. At Nexpat, we simplify the process with clear, accurate, and personalized tax support. Whether you're newly arrived or have been living in the Netherlands for years, we help you stay compliant, optimize your tax position, and avoid costly mistakes.

Income Tax Filing and Deduction Optimization

If you live in the Netherlands or earn Dutch-sourced income, you're required to file an annual income tax return. The Dutch tax system allows for various deductions and credits, but identifying which apply to your situation can be complicated. At Nexpat, we prepare your tax return with care and precision, ensuring all eligible deductions—such as mortgage interest, education costs, or childcare expenses—are included. Our goal is to minimize your tax burden while keeping everything fully compliant with Dutch law.

30% Ruling Support for Eligible Expats

The 30% ruling is one of the most valuable tax benefits available to expats in the Netherlands. It allows qualifying employees to receive up to 30% of their gross salary tax-free, significantly increasing net income. If you're eligible, Nexpat helps you apply for the 30% ruling and ensures it is properly implemented in your payroll. We also advise on structuring your employment to align with the requirements, helping you benefit from this favorable regime for as long as possible.

Foreign Income and Double Taxation Relief

Many expats earn income from multiple sources—foreign employment, overseas property, pensions, or investments. Reporting this income correctly under Dutch law is essential to avoid issues with the tax authorities. Nexpat ensures your foreign income is accurately declared and that any double tax relief available through tax treaties is properly applied. We help you navigate the rules for avoiding double taxation while ensuring you meet all Dutch reporting obligations.

Long-Term Tax Planning for Expats and Freelancers

Our services go beyond yearly tax filings. We work with you to build a long-term tax strategy that supports your financial goals while minimizing liabilities over time. Whether you’re saving for retirement, investing in property, or building your own business, Nexpat helps structure your finances in a way that’s both tax-efficient and future-focused. For freelancers and entrepreneurs, we also advise on combining income from multiple sources, deductible expenses, and appropriate business structures.

Capital Gains and Estate Planning in the Dutch Context

Selling property, cashing out investments, or transferring assets between generations can all have tax implications in the Netherlands. Understanding how Dutch rules apply—and how they interact with other countries’ systems—is key to avoiding unexpected costs. Nexpat provides expert guidance on capital gains, inheritance, and gift tax in both personal and cross-border scenarios. We help you plan ahead, protect your assets, and ensure smooth wealth transitions aligned with your goals and Dutch law.

Audit Support and Tax Dispute Resolution

If you’re contacted by the Dutch tax authorities with questions, an audit request, or a reassessment, Nexpat is here to help. We act on your behalf in correspondence with the authorities, prepare supporting documentation, and work to resolve any issues quickly and efficiently. Whether it’s a simple clarification or a more complex dispute, we ensure your rights are protected and your case is presented clearly and professionally.
