From your first details to Belastingdienst approval — here's exactly how we handle your 30% ruling application, step by step.
Start by completing our secure online intake form. We ask for your employment details, salary information, previous residence, and educational background. The form is designed to be straightforward — no tax jargon, just clear questions.
Our tax specialists review your details against all four eligibility criteria: Dutch employment, recruited from abroad, 150km distance rule, and salary threshold. We verify the numbers and flag any potential issues before preparing your application.
We check your salary against the 2026 threshold (€48,013 standard / €36,497 under-30 with Master's). If anything doesn't add up, we contact you directly with clear guidance.
We complete the official 'Verzoek loonheffingen Expatregeling' form on your behalf. Every field is filled accurately, supporting documents are organized, and the application is formatted to Belastingdienst standards.
We send you the completed application for review. Both you and your employer sign the form. We provide clear instructions for your employer if they're unfamiliar with the process.
We provide clear employer instructions with every application so signing goes smoothly.
You (or your employer) submit the completed application package to the Dutch Tax Authority. We provide the exact mailing address and a submission checklist to ensure nothing is missed.
Apply within 4 months of your start date for retroactive benefits. Processing typically takes 4-12 weeks from the Belastingdienst.
Once approved, the ruling takes effect from your start date (if filed on time). Your employer adjusts your payroll to apply the 30% exemption — and you start keeping more of your salary immediately.
We're not just another form-filling service. Here's what sets our 30% ruling application apart.
Not just form-fillers. Our service is built by tax professionals who understand the Expatregeling inside and out. We know the rules, the exceptions, and the edge cases.
