    How to submit a bank account number

    Do you hold a bank account number outside of the Netherlands?

    Submitting or changing a foreign bank account number

    You have filed an income tax return for a deceased person and you expect a refund.

    Read how to submit or change a bank account number (only available in Dutch)

    We may ask you for your bank account number. For example, if you receive a refund from us.

    We may ask you to provide your bank account number a second time because we are not allowed to use the bank account number we already have. For example, when you receive a tax refund for the first time.

    We may also ask you to provide your bank account number a second time because you have not received a tax refund on a bank account number for 36 months. This way we can be sure that the money reaches the right person and is deposited into the right account.

    We only check a bank account number in case of a refund or rebate, not when you make a payment to us.

    How you provide a bank account number depends on why you are providing it. In most cases, you can do this online.

    • Benefits (toeslagen)
      Submit your bank account number as follows:
      1. Log in to Mijn toeslagen with your DigiD.
      2. Go to the 'Mijn huishouden' tab.
      3. Select 'Wijzig' to submit your bank account number.
        We will only pay a benefit if the benefit is in your name. The account (not a savings account) to which we pay must also be in your name. Only you can change this bank account number with us. Your benefits partner cannot.

      Please note!

      Processing your bank account number takes time. If you want us to immediately stop payments to another bank account make sure to inform us not to use your old bank account when passing on your new bank account number.

      We automatically also use the bank account number you provide for your income tax and contributions under the Health Insurance Act (Zorgverzekeringswet, Zvw).
