Dutch payroll: avoid unnecessary mistakes and reduce cost 

Running Payroll in the Netherlands is among the most complicated in the world. Payroll taxes are the biggest source of income for the Dutch Government, amounting to over 156 billion annually. This is collected by the Dutch Tax Authorities thru the payroll tax return process and process is used not only for collecting payroll taxes, but also feeds nominative data of employees into hundreds of dependent (government) authorities. This data is used for running politics, defining benefits and setting policies. The need for compliance has never been greater. Knowledge of the Dutch Income & Payroll Taxes system is a precondition for ensuring compliance to produce that perfect paycheck and payroll taxes return. This course is the perfect start on this evergreen journey.
