Changes to the figures
Every time we checked, added or changed a tax figure, it is listed here with the date and the official source. The newest change is at the top.
-
Added the Belastingdienst 2026 table for special rewards (special rate, below state pension age, with the payroll tax credit). The new holiday allowance calculator uses it.
-
Added the youth minimum wage for 1 January to 30 June 2026 (age 20 €11.77 to age 15 €4.41). Hours per month are now calculated the Rijksoverheid way: workable days (Monday–Friday) × hours per day ÷ 12; 2026 has 261 workable days. Hourly and monthly amounts on the example pages change slightly as a result.
-
Added the youth minimum wage from 1 July 2026, the 2026 modal income (CPB: €48,000 gross per year) and the 2026 30% ruling figures (salary norm €48,013, under-30 master's €36,497, maximum allowance €78,600).
-
Checked all 2026 figures: tax brackets (35.75% / 37.56% / 49.50%), general tax credit (max. €3,115), labour tax credit (max. €5,685), Zvw contribution, holiday allowance (at least 8%) and minimum wage (€14.71, from 1 July 2026 €14.99). No differences found.
