The Dutch Government\u2019s Plans for the 30% Ruling: What\u2019s Changing?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Budget Day (or \u2018Prinsjesdag\u2019), the Dutch cabinet unveiled its plans for significant changes to the 30% ruling, an important tax benefit for highly skilled expats in the Netherlands. The planned changes will be rolled out in several phases, impacting both employers and employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s a breakdown of the upcoming changes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Reversal of Planned Reductions (2024):<\/strong>
    The proposed reductions to gradually lower the 30% ruling to 20%, and then 10%, by 2024 have been revoked. This is positive news for both employers and employees, as the ruling will remain at a maximum of 30% through 2025 and 2026 without any gradual reductions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Reduction to 27% (2027):<\/strong>
    As of 1 January 2027, the maximum benefit of the 30% ruling will be reduced to 27%, which will apply for the entire validity period of the ruling.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Salary Norm Increases:<\/strong>
    From 1 January 2025, salary thresholds for eligibility will increase more than the usual annual indexation. The regular salary norm will rise from \u20ac46,107 to \u20ac50,436. For employees under 30 with a Master\u2019s degree, the threshold will increase from \u20ac35,048 to \u20ac38,338. After this, regular annual indexation will be based on these higher amounts, meaning fewer employees may qualify for the benefit.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Transitional Rules for Existing Employees:<\/strong>
    Employees who have already applied for and are using the 30% ruling before 2024 will keep the 30% benefit and the former salary norms (with annual indexation) for the entire validity period of their ruling.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Legislative Process:<\/strong>
    While the cabinet is planning to implement these changes as of 1 January 2025, they must still be passed through both houses of parliament, so these changes are not yet set in stone.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    These upcoming changes to the 30% ruling will have a significant impact on both employers and employees in the Netherlands. The reversal of the initial reductions is a positive step, but the long-term reduction and higher salary norms will bring challenges for new applicants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
