Tax litigation in the Netherlands 

In your corner

The field of tax litigation encompasses every facet of your contact with the Dutch Revenue. KPMG Meijburg & Co offers you guidance and advice in these areas, and can handle any litigation and negotiations that arise. Tax procedure and litigation has become increasingly important in recent years, for a number of reasons. Key factors such as the Dutch Revenue’s unified policy, the influence of the General Administrative Law Act on tax procedure matters, and the implementation of a second trier of fact in the tax litigation arena, have all played a role.

How can KPMG Meijburg & Co assist you?

It is vital that you know your rights and responsibilities when embarking on contact with the Dutch Revenue, which is why we offer a full spectrum of tax litigation services. This spectrum encompasses everything from guidance during tax audits and responding to requests for information from the Dutch Revenue, to handling negotiations and reaching a compromise with that agency. Of course, we can also advise you on the general principles of proper administration and tax penalties.

Should you dispute the imposition of an assessment or the denial of a refund request, you will have to initiate tax proceedings. Our specialists can handle all of these proceedings for you, from the submission of the objection to the Dutch Revenue, to appealing the matter to the District Court, the Court of Appeals, and up to the Dutch Supreme Court. If you wish, we can offer you supportive services by assessing your litigation position, offering tactical litigation support, or providing you with a second opinion.
