Dutch VAT (BTW) explained

Dutch taxes explained and organized is what The TaxSavers stands for. In the Netherlands, when you are self-employed, you need to file your VAT return every quarter. It can be the case that you are seen as an entrepreneur for VAT, but not for income tax. In the VAT return, you state the amount of tax you received from your customers and the amount of tax you paid to suppliers. For most products and services, you pay or charge 21% VAT. However, in the Netherlands, we have two exceptions: - 9% VAT rate: food, drinks, medicine, etc. - 0% VAT rate: cross-border situations.
