How the calculation works
The calculator uses the 2026 Box 1 income tax brackets (35.75%, 37.56%, 49.50%) and applies the general tax credit (algemene heffingskorting) and labour tax credit (arbeidskorting). With the 30% ruling, 30% of your gross salary is treated as a tax-free reimbursement, up to a cap based on the WNT norm (€262,000 in 2026, so a maximum tax-free amount of €78,600). The ruling only applies while your taxable salary stays at or above the minimum for your profile, so the tax-free part is reduced when needed.
Important notes
- From January 2027, the 30% ruling becomes the 27% ruling for anyone who started benefiting from 2024 onward. Existing higher rates are protected for the years before 2027.
- Holiday allowance counts toward the minimum salary test.
- The tax credits used here are indicative and based on the most recently published figures, so the result is an estimate.
- This is an estimate. Your actual net depends on pension contributions, holiday allowance, partner status, mortgage interest deduction, and other personal factors.
