The small business profit exemption (MKB-winstvrijstelling)

Last updated: 19-11-2021

The Dutch Income Tax Act provides for a standard deduction of taxable profits for every individual who qualifies as an entrepreneur (conducts a business) in the Netherlands, the so-called  small business profit exemption (in Dutch: "MKB-winstvrijstelling").

In 2021 the amount of the deduction equals 14% of profits after the reduction of the claimed Entrepreneurs Deductions. The amount of deduction is, however, capped at a maximum rate of 43% in 2021.
