Requesting a tax reduction
Do you disagree with your aanslag (tax assessment notice)? Are you are too late to file an objection? Then you can apply to the Belastingdienst (Tax and Customs Administration) for a reduction of your tax bill. The Belastingdienst will then investigate whether the assessment notice is correct. If the assessment notice was too high, it will be reduced.
