The amount of tax paid depends on your taxable income, personal situation, and the country of residence. Based on the information from the Dutch tax system for 2025:

  • Income tax in the Netherlands works with progressive tax brackets in Box 1 (income from work and homeownership).
  • For people under the state pension age (AOW age) in 2025, tax rates are:
    • Up to €38,441: 35.82%
    • €38,441 to €76,817: 37.48%
    • Above €76,817: 49.50%
  • If you have reached the state pension age, lower rates apply on the first bracket.
  • Besides tax rates, tax credits and personal allowances affect the total tax payable.
  • Income from savings and investments (Box 3) is taxed differently with a rate of 36%.

To calculate exactly how much tax you pay, the taxable income amount and personal tax credits/allowances are necessary. The system deducts tax credits from the total calculated tax. If the relevant country or income details are different, please specify for a more precise calculation.
