Partner contribution: Visit Europe's first virtual Expat fair 19/03/2008 00:00
On 24 April 2008, the "First Virtual Expat Fair" is going to take place.
Where? Well, in your own home! With “virtual”, we mean live on the internet, so attending a fair was never easier! Still, it looks like you are attending a “real life” fair with the possibility to visit booths, chat with stand representatives and other attendants, have a live job interview, get relevant information and documentation, and visit live seminars!
The goal of the First Virtual Expat Fair is to bring together expats (or those planning on) living in the Netherlands and organisations that are active in the expat business. You will be able to apply for your perfect multilingual job (Dutch not required!), handle all your banking matters, subscribe for a Dutch Virtual Classroom, become a member of the expat community, find yourself a nice apartment, and much more!
Among the companies present at the fair are:
• Expatica
• Undutchables Recruitment Agency
Visiting the First Virtual Expat Fair is free: all you have to do is sign up beforehand. If you bring along five friends you have the chance of winning an Amazon voucher!
Join us during this exciting new event and sign up now!

- I currently work and live in Holland, but I will soon move to Belgium (Antwerp) while continuing to work in Holland. I was told that I can choose whether I pay income tax in Holland or Belgium. Is this true? Hello Amy, I am afraid it is not a matter of choice. 1. Most national income tax systems levy on world wide income on the basis of residency in the country 2. Tax treaties form an exception to this general rule, where a resident may be taxed in the other treaty country on certain types of income, and the "home country"will credit or exempt that part of the income. 3. If all your work days are spent in NL, and you reside in Belgium, Nl has the right to levy on your employment income. Belgium will exempt this income, but if you have other income than employment income, the applicable (progressive) rates will be applied,taking into account your world wide income (so inclusive of NL employment income). 4. Please note that changing countries halfway through the year creates a "split" in taxation; part of the year taxed as resident, and part of the year taxed as non-resident with Nl sourced income. 5. You should also look at premiums social security; most of the first brackets in income taxes consist of social security premiums, for which different rules apply. If you do your work exclusively in NL, you will be covered and liable for premiums in NL. If you work in both B and NL, you will be covered in B. kind regards, Robert Bosma Asked by : Amy Answered by : Tax Expert Robert Bosma
