Taxing matters for entrepreneurs

Paying taxes – it might not be fun but it is just a fact of life. As a startup founder, you have to arrange setting up the company, ensuring a minimum standard living and making the activities profitable. Once you have set up your entity as a BV (equivalent to private limited company), Dutch regulations must be followed. As a director/major shareholder (“DGA”) of your company, a certain minimum required salary must be payrolled and withholdings must be paid to the tax office every month. When it comes to hiring employees, perhaps even from outside the Netherlands/EU, there are also a multitude of requirements you will need to know about.Get your questions answered

The masterclass will be split into two parts, with each section having a different focus. It is recommended that participants attend the entire programme to get all your questions answered. Here’s what you’ll learn about:

Part #1

  • Identifying the DGA in your startup
  • Definition of DGA salary
  • Different DGA salary levels
  • What if earnings are below the DGA salary threshold?

Part #2

  • Payroll and administrative requirements
  • Personal income tax return
  • Immigration of non-Dutch nationals, IND and permits
  • 30% ruling and tax incentives

In this masterclass, Leo and Kavita will highlight the DGA salary rules, what it takes to process a payroll and what further administrative requirements are imposed on the fulfilment of financial and tax obligations.
