Personalized support and quick turnaround for happy employees

We provide clear information and an efficient application process. With us, the turnaround time for issuing a 30% grant letter is between 4 to 6 weeks after submission. This gives the employee quick clarity and allows the 30% ruling to be applied in a timely manner. This is important for workers because they often have many expenses at the beginning of their adventure in the Netherlands, such as a security deposit for rent and moving expenses. Applying the 30% ruling in the payroll has become more complex due to amended legislation. We help employers correctly apply the 30% ruling in the payroll and provide payroll scans. We help employers to correctly apply the 30% ruling in the payroll and we also perform payroll scans. We also help employees with income tax returns so that they correctly apply the benefits of the 30% ruling there as well, such as opting for the partial foreign tax liability. For employers, we organize trainings about the 30% ruling.

Employers

There are many rules and exceptions surrounding the 30% ruling. We make sure that everyone who is entitled to it gets the 30% ruling. We also ensure quick turnaround and compliant payroll.

Employees

We understand that employees want to receive the 30% ruling quickly so that they do not have a cash flow challenge in the initial period when many expenses are made.

To each his own, we sometimes say, because there are many rules and exceptions regarding the 30% ruling. We are happy to help and respect current customer relationships.
We start analyzing and collecting data from the employee as soon as possible. When our relocation or immigration colleagues coordinate the BSN application, we know exactly when the BSN is available. At that point we submit the 30% application (if the remainder of the information is also complete) and wait for the decision from the Dutch tax authorities. On average, for a regular application it takes 4 to 6 weeks before the 30% ruling is issued. The 30% ruling can already be applied in the payroll in the meantime.
Yes, that may be possible. Of course, there are conditions that must be met as a minimum, such as the salary requirement for the 30% ruling. We are specialized in this and always conduct a brief investigation first, as it can vary from case to case. If our investigation shows that we think the employee may be entitled to the 30% ruling, we can prepare and submit the application. We are honest during our research and have a 95% success rate for the 30% applications submitted after research.
Exchanging a foreign driver’s license for a Dutch one is possible if the employee has the 30% ruling. This also applies to family members, who are registered at the same address with the Municipal Registry. Unfortunately, if the employee does not have the 30% ruling, this is not possible and a theory and driving test must be taken.
Various rules apply to processing the 30% ruling in payroll. For example, a cap on higher salaries is applicable from 1st of January 2024. In addition, there may be a rate lower than 30% due to salary levels or duration. Want to be sure? We can perform a 30% audit of your payroll administration. Please feel free to contact us for more information.
The 30% ruling cannot be applied to a severance payment because it does not fall under income from present employment. Severance pay is considered an allowance for the loss of future income and/or retirement. Special rules also apply to garden leave situations. Please feel free to contact us for more information.
