Understanding Double Taxation
If you earn income or own property abroad, it’s important to explore ways to avoid double taxation. Double taxation occurs when multiple countries seek to tax the same income or assets. This can lead to you being taxed twice on the same earnings. Fortunately, the Netherlands offers options to claim deductions that can help prevent this situation.
How It Works
When you pay taxes on income or assets in another country, you may be eligible for a tax exemption in the Netherlands for the same income. However, navigating these rules can be complex, as income may sometimes be taxable in both countries and not taxed at all.

It’s essential to seek specialized advice early on to ensure you understand your options and obligations.
