Many clients begin tax planning for emigration six months too late. The consequences can be difficult to undo.

Emigration & Relocation

Emigrating from or immigrating to the Netherlands triggers specific Dutch tax obligations and opportunities that depend heavily on timing and preparation. We guide individuals through the full Dutch tax cycle of a cross-border move. For emigrants, this means addressing the emigration year tax return, any conserverende aanslag arising on pension rights or a substantial interest, the determination of Dutch fiscal residency and the application of the relevant tax treaty. For immigrants, we advise on the 30% ruling, the partial non-resident taxpayer status and the 183-day rules.
