Rules for Netherlands and their sources
The version in force from 2026-01-01. "Verified" rules were checked against the official source named; the others are estimates to confirm.
Requires confirmation
These rules of Netherlands are not applied, or are applied as estimates, because we could not confirm them from an official source yet. What is needed to add them:
- Employer social security %: The employer’s premiums (unemployment AWf, disability Aof, health Zvw) depend on the contract and sector, so there is no cost-to-company calculator. Needed: The 2026 employer premiums from belastingdienst.nl and a contract-type input.
