Change in VAT for own contribution to employee benefits or gifts in the Netherlands

  • The Dutch Tax Authority has announced a change in the VAT rules regarding employee benefits or gifts.
  • Currently, businesses can deduct the employee’s contribution (excluding VAT) from their expenses until January 1, 2024.
  • If the expenses fall below the BUA threshold of €227 (excluding VAT), the VAT can be deducted.
  • However, starting from January 1, 2024, businesses will no longer be able to deduct the employee’s contribution from their expenses when calculating the BUA threshold.
  • The total expenses will need to be compared to the threshold as determined by the VAT Act.
