Dutch VAT Filings

Paying taxes is a large part of what entrepreneurs have to deal with. In the Netherlands, you have to pay tax on your turnover. That tax is called the value-added tax (VAT). Your company must register with the Dutch Tax authority for a VAT number if it carries out VAT transactions. You are required to declare (Dutch VAT Filings) the VAT you have paid on products and services, as well as the VAT you have charged to your customers.

The entrepreneur is the link between the consumer and the tax authorities. Dutch tax requires VAT returns to be filed monthly, quarterly or annually. Without asking the tax authorities, it is quarterly. The submission deadline for the VAT return and payment of the VAT due is on the last working day of the following month. This way, a fine for late payment and late filing will be avoided. Each country in the EU makes discretionary resources available to VAT.

There are three VAT rates in the Netherlands. There is a high rate of 21%, a low rate of 9% for a limited selection of common services and products and a 0% rate for some cross-border services and products.
