In view of the expected proceedings before the tax courts regarding the legality of this system, it is advisable \u2013 regardless of the method used \u2013 to lodge an objection in good time against final income tax assessments that include income from savings and investments (Box 3), in order to preserve your rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Flat returns<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the purposes of tax relief, the Tax and Customs Administration applies three asset categories, each with its own flat-rate return:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>bank balances: <strong>0,00%<\/strong>;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>other possessions: <strong>5,53%<\/strong>;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>debts: <strong>-\/- 2,28%<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The flat-rate return on other assets was already known. Given the (price) losses incurred in 2022, investors will perceive this 5.53% as extremely high. The VEB has therefore already announced that it is considering launching a test case. See our article <a href=\"https:\/\/vwg.nl\/en\/nieuws\/test-procedure-regarding-investments-in-box-3-in-2022\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Test case concerning investments in Box 3 in 2022<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The flat-rate return of 0.00% on bank balances will not be a problem for anyone. The question, however, is what exactly is meant by \u2018bank balance\u2019. See, for example, our article <a href=\"https:\/\/vwg.nl\/en\/nieuws\/value-the-owners-association-reserve-as-a-bank-balance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Valuing the owners\u2019 association reserve as a bank balance<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The negative return on debt, of 2.28%, is somewhat disappointing when set against the sharp rises in interest rates we have been experiencing since mid-2022. Assets in box 3, the purchase of which was financed by a loan, will, on balance, be taxed in 2022 at a rate of: 5.53% -\/- 2.28% = 3.25% (unless the balance of total assets and total debts is less than the tax-free allowance).<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Staatssecretaris Van Rij van Financi\u00ebn heeft de voor 2022 in het kader van het rechtsherstel te hanteren forfaitaire rendementen bekend gemaakt.
