A second opinion provides an independent review of previously provided tax advice or a prepared tax return. I review tax advice and tax returns independently and objectively, providing an informed second view where appropriate. A second opinion may also be useful if the facts, legislation or applicable tax treaties have changed since the original advice was provided.

Every international tax matter starts with understanding the relevant facts and your personal circumstances.
The Dutch tax consequences depend on the applicable legislation and, where relevant, international tax treaties.
Once the applicable framework is clear, the tax consequences can be assessed and explained.
I explain the relevant tax implications in plain language, so that you understand both the outcome and the reasoning behind it.
Where appropriate, I work together with trusted specialists in the Netherlands and abroad.

Topics that require attention before leaving the Netherlands include Dutch tax residence, pensions, social security and future filing obligations. Addressing these matters before departure can help prevent unexpected tax consequences.
Possibly. Whether an individual remains a Dutch tax resident depends on all relevant facts and circumstances.
In many cases, yes. Individuals with Dutch employment income, Dutch pension income or Dutch real estate income may remain required to file a Dutch non-resident tax return after leaving the Netherlands.
The taxation of Dutch pension income after emigration depends on Dutch tax law, the applicable tax treaty and the country of residence. Different rules may apply to Dutch state pensions, employer-sponsored pensions and annuities.
The Dutch expat tax regime provides, subject to certain conditions, a tax-free allowance for specific additional costs associated with working in the Netherlands after moving from abroad. Whether the regime applies depends on several conditions, including salary thresholds and where you lived before starting work in the Netherlands.
It is often advisable to seek Dutch tax advice before making decisions that may have cross-border tax consequences. This may include moving to or from the Netherlands, accepting employment abroad, retiring overseas or acquiring property in another country. Understanding the Dutch tax implications beforehand can help you make informed decisions and avoid unexpected tax consequences.
