TVL exempt from (corporate) income tax
Did you receive TVL? The subsidy will not be counted towards your taxable profit. This means it will be exempt from income tax (inkomstenbelasting) or corporate income tax (vennootschapsbelasting). This is a change in legislation, which will be applied retroactively from 1 January 2021. That is to say, if you have received TVL to compensate turnover losses in 2021, you do not have to add it to your taxable income over 2021. Read more about the TVL.
