Local tax news

​Netherlands - Tax Reform to Counter Tax Avoidance Approved by the Council of Ministers
​The Council of Ministers agreed to align national laws with EU anti-avoidance rules. The most important amendments are the following:
(i) to implement the EU Anti-Tax Avoidance Directive (EU) 2016/1164;

(ii) to re-introduce thin capitalisation rules (to restrict the deductibility of interest to a maximum of 30% of EBITDA);

(iii) to introduce CFC legislation. CFC rules will apply if a Dutch company owns more than 50% in a foreign company, and if the foreign company is taxed at a rate which is less than half the Dutch rate;

(iv) to implement rules against hybrid mismatches by 2020;

(v) to introduce in 2021 a withholding tax on interest, dividend and royalty payments to low tax jurisdictions, non-cooperative jurisdictions and in abuse situations (artificial structures);

(vi) to include anti-abuse provisions and principle purpose text to all Dutch tax treaties; and

​(vii) to amend its Transfer Pricing Decree in line with the OECD - Transfer Pricing Guidelines for MNEs (2017).
