Netherlands weighs inheritance and gift tax to fund box 3 reform
- —The cabinet planned to cut the box 3 tax-free return from €1,800 to €1,000, affecting about 850,000 people
- —Parliament considers that too heavy for those with limited wealth
- —Lawmakers are examining curbs on paper gifts that reduce inheritance tax
- —From 2028, an accelerated route could tax crypto gains annually before coins are sold
Why it matters: The outcome will set the tax-free threshold and whether unrealized crypto gains are taxed in the Netherlands.
