Even on this ridiculous basis, the tax authorities weren’t even so thorough as to assess if they were discriminating against migrants. Merely looking non-western was sufficient. Having the “wrong” nose or hair or skin color or name, or whatever superficial bases they used, doesn’t make you a migrant. Especially given Dutch history with its colonies, there are a lot of such people who have been living in NL for generations. > people with a "non-Western appearance" were subjected to stricter controls
