Work & salary

Dutch take home pay, hourly wage, holiday pay and hours worked: 7 free calculators with explanations.

These calculators help you understand your pay and your rights at work. Convert a Dutch gross salary into take home pay with the 2026 tax brackets and tax credits, calculate Dutch income tax in box 1, work out the 8% holiday allowance (vakantiegeld) and the statutory severance payment (transitievergoeding), and find your Dutch state pension (AOW) age. The hourly wage calculator turns an annual or monthly salary into an hourly rate, or the other way around, and the hours calculator adds up hours worked on a time card.

Several tools are specific to the Netherlands, which makes them useful for expats, international employees and employers comparing job offers. Each page explains the rules in plain English, with worked examples and answers to common questions. The results are estimates: your actual payslip depends on things like pension contributions, the 30% ruling and other personal circumstances.
