Living in the Netherlands but working abroad

Are you living in the Netherlands but working abroad? For many expats, it is becoming increasingly easier to work remotely from abroad for their Dutch employer.

183 day rule Netherlands

Keep in mind that living in the Netherlands and working (from) abroad can have tax consequences. Your physical work location is very important from a tax point of view and determines where you have to pay income tax. In any case, it is important that you keep a close eye on how many days you work abroad in such a situation, including holidays. If people work abroad for more than 183 days, that country will also tax the income. The Netherlands should then grant double tax deductions in proportion to the days worked abroad.
