In the case of a payable assessment, you pay interest on tax

Note!
To cushion the consequences of the coronavirus, we will be taking measures. One of them is to temporarily lower the interest on tax to 0.01%. The reduction for income tax will come into effect on 1 July 2020.

If we impose an assessment on you after 1 July 2020, you will pay 4% tax interest on it as of 1 July. Read more about this under Tax Interest (only available in Dutch).
