This is absolutely untrue. In The Netherlands the government has a 30% tax rebate for devs who come from elsewhere and it’s leveraged intensely, more than half of the devs I work with at bigger companies here are usually not Dutch.
- azinman2 5y agoSo the Dutch government is incentivizing hiring non-Dutch people??!

This is similar on intent to the O1 visas in the US. https://www.iamsterdam.com/en/living/take-care-of-official-matters/highly-skilled-migrants/thirty-percent-ruling/30-percent-ruling-indepth https://www.iamsterdam.com/en/living/take-care-of-official-m...
