Leaving the Netherlands
Before moving to a different country, it is important to consider how this will change your situation with regards to tax. If you keep a property in the Netherlands, or if you will still receive income from the Netherlands, this will have an impact on your tax liabilities.
Leaving the Netherlands
Once you have immigrated, all the facts will need accurate presenting in your M-form. This form is crucial to changing your tax status to non-residency. We do not recommend completing this form yourself, as there is a high chance of errors.
At J.C. Suurmond & zn. Tax Consultants, you can be certain that you will be supported by experienced advisors who can provide the answers to your questions.
These are the kind of questions that you may be asking yourself:
- Will I need to file an M-form just like when I moved to the Netherlands?;
- What impact does emigration have on my tax liability for the current tax year?;
- Will my savings and investments in the Netherlands be taxed after I leave the country?
- I am keeping my house in the Netherlands and will rent this out. What tax obligations does this generate for me?
- I am keeping my house in the Netherlands and this will remain empty. Do I need to pay tax on this property?
- I am leaving the Netherlands for work, and am unsure if my family should move at the same time.
- Will I have to pay an exit tax when moving away from the Netherlands?
- I am leaving the Netherlands and after the move I will continue to have income in the Netherlands; do I have to pay Dutch tax on this income?

The importance of hiring an international tax advisor
