File your Dutch VAT return without a subscription

What one return gets you

How it works

  1. Create a free account: Fill in your business profile with your KvK number, your BTW-id and your phone number. They are needed to submit the return.
  2. Book the quarter: Enter the quarter's income and expenses. Taxmo places them in the boxes (rubrieken) of the BTW return.
  3. Pay for that quarter: Once the quarter has ended, choose the one-time option in the filing guide and pay €29.99 excl. VAT.
  4. Check and submit: You see the return with every box, check the figures and send it yourself via Digipoort. The status of your submission then shows in Taxmo.

Three ways to file your Dutch VAT return

Yourself in Mijn Belastingdienst Zakelijk

Free, but you log in to the Belastingdienst portal, which is in Dutch, and retype every box from your own records. A free Taxmo account helps here too: the filing guide lists the amount for each box.

Once, from Taxmo

€29.99 excl. VAT per return. You send the return straight from Taxmo via Digipoort, without retyping and without a subscription. You only pay for the quarter you file.

Starter plan (€12.99 per month excl. VAT)

Direct filing for every quarter with no separate payment, plus unlimited bookkeeping entries, invoicing and the income tax return wizard.

What does it cost?

One BTW return costs €29.99 excl. VAT (€36.29 incl. 21% VAT), once for that quarter. The free account itself stays free. To file every quarter directly and book without limits, Starter starts at €12.99 per month excl. VAT. See the plans

Who is the one-time filing for?

For businesses in the Netherlands with a free Taxmo account and a KvK number that file BTW per quarter, including expat freelancers (ZZP'ers). It covers the VAT return (omzetbelasting) of one quarter that has ended and has not been filed yet.

Not included: the EU sales listing (ICP, opgaaf intracommunautaire prestaties), which is part of the Pro plan. If you file BTW monthly, the one-time option is not available. On a paid plan, direct filing is already included and you pay nothing extra.

You submit, not Taxmo

Taxmo prepares the return from your bookkeeping and sends it via Digipoort when you click submit. You check the figures and you are the one who files. Taxmo does not file on your behalf and does not review your numbers.
