Online tax filing service for expats

This is an online provider of tax services for expats and their employers, located in a region with many international employers. Through a proprietary, English-language tax portal, international employees prepare their Dutch income tax returns digitally. The portal automatically determines the correct tax return form, after which a tax specialist reviews, optimizes, and files the return. In addition, the company provides services related to the 30% ruling, preliminary tax assessments, gift tax, government benefits, and advisory consultations.

Strengths

• Proprietary tax portal (cloud-based, GDPR-compliant), included in the sale, along with the brand, website, content, and file history.
• Returning customers: several hundred paying customers each year. Filing income tax returns is an annual obligation, and a large portion of the customers return.
• Rising revenue per return: from approximately €250 (2024) to nearly €400 (2026), thanks to bundles and add-ons.
• Structural acquisition channel: partnerships with major international employers.
• Asset-light: The work is handled by an external tax firm, which receives 40% of revenue. A buyer with in-house tax capabilities can significantly increase the margin.
• Continuity: One part-time employee (developer) ensures the continuity of the portal.

Transfer
There is a smooth transition period of approximately three months; the intended transfer date is January 1, 2027, before the tax filing season.

Suitable for

An information memorandum is available upon signing a confidentiality agreement. Indicative bids are preferably expected by December 1, 2026.
