The 30% ruling, once a cornerstone of financial support for highly skilled international talent, is undergoing a comprehensive overhaul that took place on January 1, 2024. This change comes at a challenging juncture as Dutch tech startups grapple with growth hurdles and talent shortages. With a crucial role played by international talent in the workforce, particularly in the tech sector, the impact of these tax adjustments raises questions about the continued appeal of the Netherlands as a destination for skilled professionals. As Dutch startups face challenges in filling tech-related positions, the effectiveness of these policy changes will likely be closely monitored, with potential repercussions for the broader Dutch business climate.<\/h4>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-14b6vn-50003a8e1c4e38cc022fb4e18456a68a\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-14b6vn-50003a8e1c4e38cc022fb4e18456a68a{\nheight:50px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-14b6vn-50003a8e1c4e38cc022fb4e18456a68a hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-8  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_sidebar '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div  class='avia-builder-widget-area clearfix  avia-builder-el-9  el_after_av_hr  el_before_av_hr '><div id=\"avia_auto_toc-2\" class=\"widget clearfix avia-widget-container avia_auto_toc avia_no_block_preview\"><div class=\"avia-preview-headline\">techleap Table of Contents<\/div><div class=\"avia-preview-info\">Title: <\/div><div class=\"avia-preview-in-front\">Table can only be rendered in frontend.<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-7uuz0j-117012b5f51e0753987d7ed60a91b32e\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-7uuz0j-117012b5f51e0753987d7ed60a91b32e{\nheight:50px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-7uuz0j-117012b5f51e0753987d7ed60a91b32e hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-10  el_after_av_sidebar  el_before_av_textblock '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-ls1vhnde-6dfde99261c4ee00ccaa672eed1c1d58 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h3>Set back in attracting global talent<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The 30% ruling is a tax advantage for highly skilled international talent in the Netherlands.
