The 30% ruling, in three questions
See how a full ruling would change your offer at the current modelled rates. The tax authority and your employer determine your actual award.
Answer the questions and enter your salary to see a scenario.
This is not an award decision. Check the residence conditions and award with your employer. Partial exemptions, researcher exceptions and salaries above the exemption cap need an individual calculation.
Both figures use 2026 rates. They are scenarios, not forecasts.

What else determines eligibility?
Recruitment and salary are only a first check. Residence history and a valid award matter too. A researcher exception or a partial exemption may apply even when this simplified model cannot apply the full exemption. Confirm with your employer.
Why show a figure without the ruling?
The award is temporary. Comparing with and without it at the same year's rates shows how dependent the offer is on the exemption. It does not predict future take-home pay.
What changes after this tax year?
The documented exemption changes from 30% to 27% in 2027 for affected awards, with transitional rules. We have no verified 2027 tax specification, so the calculator does not forecast that year's salary.
