Coal tax

In the Netherlands you must pay coal tax (kolenbelasting) on the consumption of coal. The amount of tax is calculated using one rate per 1,000 kilograms. For your tax return, please use the coal tax return form (download the pdf, in Dutch).

Reimbursement regulation

In some cases, for instance if you use natural gas to generate electricity, you may be eligible for a coal tax reimbursement (in Dutch).
