Am I entitled to payroll tax credit? And how do I apply for this?
If you work, you pay tax on your salary. This is called payroll tax. The payroll tax is deducted from your salary. You are entitled to a discount on your payroll tax. How much payroll tax credit is applied to you depends on your salary. On the website of the Tax and Customs Administration you can see how to calculate the labor tax credit. In the registration form that you receive from Topselect, you indicate whether you want the payroll tax credit to be applied.
Please note! Do you work for more than 1 employer at the same time? Or do you receive benefits in addition to your job? Then you can only apply for the payroll tax credit from 1 employer (choose the employer where you work the most hours). If you apply for a payroll tax credit from every employer, you will receive too much discount on your tax. You then have to pay back tax afterwards. You can change the payroll tax credit from one employer to another as often as you want.

Can I reclaim tax?
Payroll tax is an advance levy on income tax for Dutch taxpayers. If too much payroll tax is deducted, this will be corrected when filing your tax return for the relevant year. This means you will either receive a refund if too much was deducted, or you will have to make an additional payment if too little was deducted. Other rules sometimes apply for foreign employees. Do you want to know whether you are entitled to a tax refund and how you may apply for this? Then contact the Dutch Tax and Customs Administration via +31 55 538 53 85
