Although the Netherlands has a sophisticated tax system with high tax rates some aspects of its fiscal system are extremely attractive and make it the ideal location in which to base international trading operations.

Attractive fiscal incentives are further enhanced by a complex network of double taxation treaties (few of which contain any anti avoidance provisions) and by the existence of a procedure of advance tax rulings whereby the tax authorities who are autonomous and approachable can at short notice specify the fiscal consequences of certain business structures provided that material financial interests are involved and the propositions are reasonable.

The Netherlands have a reputable name regarding the attractive tax regime for holding companies and royalty structures. Although the Netherlands were forced to change some of their incentives for foreign investors, it still takes effort in creating the best tax climate possible. At this moment the interest box is under investigation by the European Commission. After approval it would give investors the opportunity to receive interest which is taxed at approx. 7%.
