- atomicstack 9y agoNot quite... the first 30% of your salary is tax-free: https://www.belastingdienst.nl/wps/wcm/connect/bldcontenten/belastingdienst/individuals/living_and_working/working_in_another_country_temporarily/you_are_coming_to_work_in_the_netherlands/30_facility_for_incoming_employees/ https://www.belastingdienst.nl/wps/wcm/connect/bldcontenten/...
- sAbakumoff 9y agoI heard of 8 years. In 5 years you can optionally apply for Dutch citizenship and if it's approved 30% rule is gone.
- mtrimpe 9y agoIt used to be 10 years but was reduced to 8 a few years ago. You keep the 30% rule after you apply for citizenship though. It even applies to native residents who haven't lived in NL for more than 10 or 20 years.
- claviola 9y agoNot actually foreign, you just have to have lived more than 150 kilometers away (straight line) from Dutch borders for at least 2 years before your employment begins.
