30% ruling applications
The Dutch tax benefit for internationals, checked, applied for and arranged from start to finish.
Up to 30% of your salary, tax free
If you were recruited from abroad, the 30% ruling can significantly increase what you take home every month, for years.
But the conditions are precise, the rules keep changing, and a wrong first application can cost you the benefit entirely.
We check whether you qualify, prepare the application and coordinate everything with your employer, so nothing is left to chance
Our process
From first check to the benefit in your payslip
1. You fill in the form
The key details of your move and your job. Five minutes, no tax knowledge required.
2. We check your eligibility
Salary norms, recruitment from abroad, the 150 km rule: an honest answer before anyone gets their hopes up.
3. You receive our proposal
Exactly what we’ll do and how, so you know what to expect before we start.
4. We prepare and file
The application is a joint request from you and your employer. We prepare everything, coordinate the signatures and file it with the Tax Authorities.
5. You see it in your payslip
Once granted, we make sure your employer’s payroll applies it correctly, so the benefit actually lands where it belongs: with you.
Told you don't qualify? Ask us anyway.
Some of our best outcomes started with “my employer says I’m not eligible.“
The conditions have exceptions, the exceptions have conditions, and a second opinion costs you five minutes.
If we see a route, we’ll find it. And if you truly don’t qualify, we’ll tell you that honestly too.

“DutchTaxAdvice has proven to be the partner we had been hoping to find, and their support began long before we were even incorporated. They walked us through incorporation, submitting amendments to the KVK, and helped our employees apply for the 30% ruling. They’re responsive, friendly, and quick to help translate Dutch tax requirements whenever needed.”

FAQ
Common questions answered clearly
Do I qualify for the 30% ruling?
Broadly: recruited from abroad, meeting a salary threshold, and having lived more than 150 km from the Dutch border before your move. The details decide, and we check them case by case.
My employer never applied. Is it too late?
Often not. It may still be possible to apply, though waiting can shorten the benefit period. The sooner we look at it, the more there is to save.
What happens if I change jobs?
The ruling can move with you if your new job starts within three months of leaving the old one. A new joint application is needed, and we handle it.
How long does the application take?
That depends on the Tax Authorities, but we file quickly and completely so nothing waits on our side. Once granted, it can apply retroactively to the start of your employment.
