🚨BREAKING: The Netherlands’ parliament has approved a 36% tax on unrealized capital gains, effective from 2028.

Under the new measure, investors will be taxed on the increase in value of assets such as stocks, bonds, and cryptocurrencies, even if no assets have been sold and no cash has been realized.

Despite a petition signed by 61,000 citizens opposing the proposal, parliament proceeded with its approval.
If taxpayers lack sufficient liquid funds to cover the tax liability, or if asset values subsequently decline after payment, the government assumes no responsibility for these challenges.

This policy represents more than conventional taxation. It effectively treats paper gains as taxable income before any actual realization has occurred.

Many of the Netherlands’ most skilled investors are already considering relocation. Capital naturally flows to jurisdictions that offer more favourable treatment.

2028 is approaching.

Plan accordingly.
