Tax Return in the Netherlands

If you are a non-residential tax payer, you are required to file a tax return in the Netherlands under the following circumstances:

  • you have received an invitation to file a return;
  • you have received a C Form or any other form;
  • you have not received an invitation to file a tax return nor a C Form, but you earned income in the Netherlands in 2009 on which you have not paid any tax and over which you owe more than €43;
  • have not received a tax return letter (aangiftebrief) and no form C (C-biljet), but you qualify for a tax refund in 2009 in excess of €14;
Living abroad while receiving income in the Netherlands
If you do not live in the Netherlands, you may still be liable for Dutch income tax. This may be the case if you work in the Netherlands, or if you earn an income in or from the Netherlands. The Dutch Income Tax Act describes the types of income involved, and how the income tax owed is determined. If you receive one or more of these types of income, you will be regarded as a non-resident taxpayer for Dutch tax purposes . In that case, you will have to file an income tax return in the Netherlands, usually on an annual basis.
