How is income tax structured in the Netherlands?

08.09.2021

Income tax in the Netherlands consists of three boxes.

 

Box 1 includes income from work and own housing (the one in which you are registered).

Box 2 contains income from shares.

Box 3 includes income from savings and investments.

 

It is very important to properly distribute your income between boxes, because each box has its own rate, its own benefits, deductions and exemptions.

 

For more information about the device of income tax in the Netherlands, see our video.
