Community Salary Insights
See how your situation compares to other visitors who chose to share - anonymized, aggregated, and optional. Nobody else on a Dutch tax site publishes this kind of transparency.

No submissions yet for this year - be the first to share.
- What actually gets storedYour salary is rounded down into a 5,000 EUR-wide band server-side before it is written anywhere - the exact figure you type is used only to compute that band, then discarded. No user account, session, or IP address is attached to a submission, so there is no way to link a row back to a specific visitor, even for site administrators.
- Why this is informal, not a surveyAnyone can submit anything here, and there is no verification of what people enter - this reflects whoever chose to share, not a representative sample of expats in the Netherlands. Treat the numbers as a casual point of comparison, not a statistically sound benchmark.
- Why share at allThe value is entirely collective: the more people who share, the more useful the aggregated picture becomes for everyone comparing their own situation - including you, the next time you check back.
- What this does not replaceThis says nothing about your own correct tax position - use the actual calculators on this site for that. This page is purely an optional, informal comparison layer on top.
- How it worksThese figures come from salaries that visitors chose to share anonymously, without their name, employer or anything that identifies them. Each is grouped by job field, experience and city. With enough submissions in a group, you see the typical range and the middle of it; groups with too few entries are not shown, so no single salary can be traced back to a person.
- How to use itUse the range as a reality check before a salary conversation, together with the net figures from the take-home calculator. Keep in mind that shared salaries are a sample, not an official statistic: compare them with job ads and with what recruiters tell you, and share your own salary to make the picture better for everyone.
Frequently asked questions
Can this be traced back to me?
No - no account, session, name, or IP address is stored with a submission, and your exact salary figure is discarded the moment it is rounded into a band. There is nothing linking a row in this data to any specific visitor.
Can I remove my submission later?
Not individually - since submissions aren't linked to you or your session in any way, there is no way to identify which row was yours to remove it.
Is this official Belastingdienst data?
No - this is entirely self-reported by site visitors who chose to share, with no verification. Treat it as an informal, casual comparison, not an authoritative statistic.
Sharing is entirely optional and anonymous: no account, name, or IP address is ever stored with your submission. Your salary is only ever stored as a rounded 5,000 EUR-wide band (e.g. "65000-70000"), never as an exact figure, and there is no way to trace a submission back to you. This is self-reported data from site visitors, not an official statistic - treat it as a rough, informal comparison, not a survey with any guaranteed accuracy.
