Home loan interest rates in the Netherlands

If you have a mortgage in the Netherlands, the interest you pay on your home loan can be tax deductible. Nevertheless, there are specific requirements that need to be fulfilled to reap the benefits of this tax deduction.

If you own a home, you can deduct the interest from your taxable income in box 1. Additionally, costs associated with purchasing your home, such as valuation fees and notary fees, are also deductible.

The terms and conditions of the mortgage interest deduction:

• The mortgage is for the home that is your main place of residence. Deducting interest for the purchase of a holiday home is not possible.
• The mortgage will be repaid within 30 years.
• When you sell the house and have a surplus value you will have to use this surplus to buy a new home.

Provided the new home is bought within three years of selling the old one. Otherwise, the mortgage interest will not be deductible.

Beware that owning a home is not only profitable when it comes to taxes. Before you deduct the interest from your mortgage a part of the home’s value will also be added to the taxable income. This is known as the imputed income from homeownership. The amount that will be added to your taxable income is the percentage of your home’s value for the purposes of the Dutch Valuation of Immovable Property Act (WOZ-waarde).
