Don't get double taxed

  1. Gather all necessary documentation: You will need to provide proof of your Polish citizenship, as well as documentation that proves your income and taxes paid in the Netherlands. This may include your Dutch salary slips, a copy of your Dutch tax return, and a certificate of Dutch tax paid.
  2. Complete the Dutch tax return: Even if you are not a resident of the Netherlands, you are still required to file a Dutch tax return if you have earned income in the country. Make sure to include all relevant information and double-check that all figures are correct.
  3. File the tax return: You can file your Dutch tax return online through the Dutch Tax and Customs Administration's website, or you can submit it in person at a tax office.
  4. Wait for a decision: The Dutch Tax and Customs Administration will review your tax return and determine if you are eligible for a refund. This process can take several months, so be patient.
  5. Claim your refund: If your refund is approved, the Dutch Tax and Customs Administration will send the money directly to your bank account.

It's important to note that the Netherlands and Poland have a tax treaty in place, which means that you may not be taxed twice on the same income. However, you should check with a tax advisor or accountant to confirm that you are not double-taxed.

The process for claiming a tax refund as a citizen of Romania, Ukraine, Lithuania, and Bulgaria working in the Netherlands is similar to the process for Polish citizens. However, it's important to note that the Netherlands has tax treaties with each of these countries, and the specifics of these treaties may vary.

It's also worth noting that the Netherlands has tax treaties with Romania, Ukraine, Lithuania, and Bulgaria, which means that you may not be taxed twice on the same income. However, it's important to check with a tax advisor or accountant to confirm that you are not double-taxed and to ensure that you have the most up-to-date information on the tax treaty between Netherlands and your home country.
