Income Tax Return

Help with your Dutch income tax return (aangifte inkomstenbelasting), in your language.

The Dutch tax office (Belastingdienst) asks many people who live or work in the Netherlands to file an income tax return. We prepare it with you, in person, and explain every step in a language you understand.

Most returns can be filed online with DigiD. Some situations — for example if you moved to or from the Netherlands during the year, or if you live abroad — use a different form or procedure. We check which one applies to you.

Whether you get money back, pay nothing, or have to pay depends on your personal circumstances: your income, how long you worked, your insurance and your family situation. We cannot promise a refund, but we can check what your situation shows before we file.

What this service includes

  • A check of your situation and which return applies to you
  • Collecting and reading your annual statements (jaaropgave) and other papers
  • Preparing and filing the return with you
  • Deductions and allowances that apply to your situation, where relevant
  • Explaining the result and any letter you get afterwards, in your language
  • Previous tax years can often still be filed within the legal deadlines — ask us to check

Documents to bring

  • Passport or ID card
  • BSN (citizen service number)
  • DigiD, if you already have one
  • Jaaropgave(s) for the tax year, or payslips if you have no jaaropgave
  • Dutch IBAN (bank account number)
  • Current address, phone number and email
  • Details of your partner and children, if you have them
  • Health insurance details and any allowance decisions

Depending on your personal situation, extra documents may be needed. We tell you what to bring before we meet.
