Employers are responsible for complying with tax and social security legislation. This is of crucial importance in preventing damage to your reputation, supplementary tax assessments and/or penalties and interest on tax due.

Posted Workers Directive
Since the Posted Workers Directive (PWD) took effect, we have been advising organizations on the obligations arising from that directive. The PWD stipulates minimum requirements employers must comply with when seconding employees to another EU Member State. One of the requirements is sending an advance notification of the secondment to the competent authorities in the Member State where the activities will be performed. Our specialists have in-depth knowledge about these obligations and can help you comply with them, including notifying the Dutch tax authorities about your seconded employees.
