I've never actually used or seen the word fictive, so it's kind of cool to learn a new English word from a Dutch person! Is the tax on your investment gain or is it a tax on the net value of your holdings? If it's just a 4% tax on the gain, that sounds pretty good compared to the US!
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
If you have 100K holdings you pay : capital gain tax 30% * (100K *4%) = 1200 ; a threshold applies.
Ok, so if I understand you correctly, they are taxing you based on the assumption that you will have future capital gains regardless of whether you actually have them yet. If so, can you deduct the taxes paid already from later capital gains tax?
The actual gain or loss does not matter here. You are always charged with tax on the assumed 4%, the 4% itself is based on the historic return on a basket of investments and will change next years.
