Dutch Lawmakers Approve a 36% Tax on Unrealized Crypto, Stock, and Bond Gains Starting January 2028, the Netherlands is set to require that residents pay tax on paper profits they have not yet cashed in, pending Senate approval.
The Dutch House of Representatives on Thursday voted to pass the Actual Return in Box 3 Act (Wet werkelijk rendement box 3), a reform that will tax residents at a flat rate of 36% on the actual returns they earn from savings and investments, effective January 1, 2028.
The bill replaces a system that taxed investment income based on assumed returns, a framework the Dutch Supreme Court ruled unconstitutional in a series of decisions beginning in December 2021.
Under the new regime, the tax applies not only to income that has actually been received, such as interest, dividends, and rent, but also to the annual increase in value of assets like stocks, bonds, and cryptocurrencies, even when those assets have not been sold.
If a Dutch resident holds a portfolio of shares that rises by €10,000 over the course of a year, the tax authority will treat that paper gain as taxable income, regardless of whether the investor has sold anything.
Real estate and shares in qualifying startups will follow different rules. For those assets, the government adopted a capital gains approach, meaning that tax on the appreciation of value is charged only when the asset is sold or otherwise disposed of. Regular income from these assets, such as rental payments or dividends, will still be taxed annually in the year it is received....

This is a conservative discussion forum.
It seems meant for opinions, ideas and conclusions of thought to share with members.
To post a “look at my snark” seems out of place.
I would rather have an opinion on the subject at hand.
Gays have the “Look at Me and My inner rebellion”.
If December 31 is the critical date to determine the unrealized gain, then they can expect a huge crash, as everyone sells their shares.
“Are you gay?”
Are you trans?
I am an investor of stocks.
Taxing me on the value of those stocks before I cash out is beyond libtard stupid.
“I am an investor of stocks.”
OK. Brokerage houses don’t care which pronouns you use.
If we ever really get serious about the national debt, this would be an attractive way to address it.
As a meme elsewhere read, that’s almost like as if some tax assessor put a theoretical value on your house you aren’t selling ...
and then local government sent you a tax bill based on this assessment which if unpaid allows them to take your whole hme away.
Hm.
Your the same one criticizing the NVIDA stock split.
You provide very little to an opinion of anything.
This is outrageous.
“Your the same one criticizing the NVIDA stock split.”
You lie.
“Well, that will stop investments. Is that their goal?”

Why would it stop investments? You can’t just hide your Euros under the bed.

Only a Deep State troll would push for taxes on UNREALIZED gains.
How about unrealized losses?
I am not going to purchase stock and pay tax on their gains until I cash out.
Well played :)

Makes sense. He/it pops up at interesting times, like an AI ‘bot.
Be careful.
They already attack churches and religion.
Adding a fart into the anti-religious Marxist equation will just amp up the Globull Hoax.
Once you reach 73 you are forced to withdraw increasing amounts based on your age, and the value of the IRA assets on 12/31 of the previous year and then pay taxes on the amount withdrawn. And the amounts needed to be withdrawn increase for an inherited IRA.
