Surprises...


This web site harbors a few gems and surprises. This page contains a tip.


Tax tip for PhD students in the Netherlands.

(English version below.) Volgens informatie uit 2004 zijn kosten voor promotie als scholingskosten in Nederland aftrekbaar voor de belastingen. De promotie leidt namelijk tot een verbetering van de financieel-economische positie van de promovendus, zo was de redenering.

Ook de kosten rond de promotieplechtigheid zijn aftrekbaar, zoals:

  • huur van gelegenheidskleding voor hem- of haarzelf en de paranimfen;
  • kosten van de receptie aansluitend op de promotieplechtigheid.

Bron: Ministerie van Financiën, 10-2-2004, nr. CPP2003/2833M. Zie bijvoorbeeld deze pagina van PriceWaterhouseCoopers.

(Dit geldt dus ook voor facturen van SmarterScience als die met uw promotie-onderzoek te maken hebben.)

English

Information issued in 2004 indicated that the costs for your Ph.D. are deductable as "scholingskosten". Reason: the Ph.D. improves the student's financial and economic position.

These costs include:

  • rental of special clothing, also for the "paranimfen";
  • costs of the reception following the graduation ceremony.

(This would also apply to invoices from SmarterScience relating to your Ph.D. research.)
