In the Netherlands, volunteer work is also not completely free. People who work for the benefit of society are trying to reimburse their expenses, for example, for transport or some other possible expenses associated with the performance of this work. That expense could be a coffee bill if you went out to a café with a lone Dutchman whose volunteer you are.
Therefore, if you suddenly work somewhere as a volunteer (or are just going to work), it will be useful for you to know that the maximum amount of non-taxable compensation for volunteers has increased from 150 euros per month to 170. Thus, the government wants to encourage volunteering.
