LIMES comments
The TOGS (Tegemoetkoming Ondernemers Getroffen Sectoren), is one of the emergency measures by the Dutch government for entrepreneurs, previously known as the Emergency Counter (Noodloket). If you do business in one of these sectors, you can receive a one-off payment of € 4,000.
Deferral of tax payments for entrepreneurs & reduction of tax interest
Entrepreneurs (including legal entities) may receive special deferral of payments for income tax, corporate tax, sales tax (BTW) and payroll tax. The conditions for applying for deferral of payment have been relaxed due to the corona crisis.
Do you expect a lower profit due to the corona outbreak? And do you now pay a provisional assessment for income tax or corporate tax? Then you can change your provisional assessment so that you immediately pay less tax. Reduce your estimated income for this.
Entrepreneurs who are in acute difficulties due to the corona crisis may be granted a deferral for the payment of pension contributions. The Stichting van de Arbeid and the umbrella organizations of pension providers, the Pension Federation and the Dutch Association of Insurers have agreed this.
IMMIGRATION MEASURES
In order to prevent further spread of COVID-19, the Dutch Immigration Authorities (IND), the Municipalities, the Municipal Health Services (GGD) and other public services have taken several measures and adjusted their services.
