:: UPDATE - 16/02/2021 ::

Through a duly motivated request that is submitted to the Regional "Tax Collectors Office" (in Dutch: Regionaal Invorderingscentrum) of the postal code of your place of residence (natural person) or your company’s registered office (legal entity), it is possible to request a deferral of payment, together with an exemption of imposed penalties and late payment interests. To file a request, a standard form is made available to you on the FPS Finance’s website (click here). The competent authority will consider your application and a decision is made within 30 days.
