Establish the identity of your employee
When you are going to withhold payroll taxes you must first establish the identity of your employee. You do so using valid proof of identity, such as:
- a Dutch passport or identity card
- a Dutch residence document
- a Dutch alien's or an asylum seeker's passport
- a foreign passport or national identity card
Please note!
You may not establish the identity of your employee using a driving licence or a copy of an ID.
Once you have established the identity of your employee then you must make a copy of the ID.
When you cannot establish the identity of your employee then you must use the anonymous rate.
Ukrainian refugees
When employing a refugee from Ukraine, the sticker in their passport or their O-document from the Immigration and Naturalisation Service (IND) indicates that they are allowed to work in the Netherlands. The sticker in the passport or O-document is also a valid proof of identity.
