The Netherlands has a rich history dealing with taxation, predating the Romanic period.

Some of the most important taxes are that of the Income Tax (Wet op de inkomstenbelasting 2001), the Wage Tax (Wet op de loonbelasting 1964), the Value Added Tax (Wet op de omzetbelasting 1968) and the Corporate Tax (Wet op de vennootschapsbelasting 1969).

The Netherlands has a progressive tax rate. For a while, the highest income bracket in the Netherlands was 72%, but now this is 52%. The brackets are 1.8%, 9.35%, 42% and 52%. The first two brackets also contain the Social Security payments (premiums, AOW, ANW and AWBZ), making it effectively 32.6% higher - or 34.4%, 41.95%, 42% and 52%.
