How it works

The 30% ruling lets eligible incoming employees receive up to 30% of their gross salary tax-free, to cover the extra costs of working abroad. This tool shows the tax-free portion and estimates the Box 1 tax saved compared to having no ruling, using the 2026 brackets.

Illustrative estimate only, using simplified/rounded 2026 Dutch tax figures — not tax advice. Tax credits phase out at higher incomes, which this tool doesn't model precisely. Always confirm with the Belastingdienst or a tax advisor.
