Publicatiedatum: 2026-05-26
As of May 1, 2026, the Dutch Tax and Customs Administration and the Benefits Service will switch from ING to Rabobank. This means that the account numbers will also change.
What does this mean for you?
If you owe taxes, you will receive a notice from the Tax and Customs Administration. The new account number will be included in the notice regarding the taxes due.
Please note!The new account number does not affect the payment method. For example, online payments will still be possible.
The most commonly used new account number for the Tax and Customs Administration is NL04 RABO 0200112244. However, please note that different new account numbers are used for some taxes.
Note regarding recurring payments
If you pay the Tax and Customs Administration periodically via direct debit, you do not need to do anything. The payments will be automatically transferred to the new account number.
You only need to be careful if you have arranged a recurring payment differently, for example via a recurring transfer with your bank. In that case, you must ensure that the account number is updated yourself.
Using the old number is (still) fine
If you accidentally use the “old” account number for a payment to the Tax Authority, your payment will still be forwarded to the Tax Authority and processed there for the time being. The Tax Authority has made arrangements with ING regarding this, so that taxpayers are not penalized.
New income tax account number effective April 20, 2026
To pay a provisional or final income tax assessment, you can use the new account number starting April 20, 2026.
Benefits
The Benefits Service is also switching to Rabobank and will therefore have a new account number starting May 1, 2026. From that date, you can make payments to the Benefits Service using the new account number NL04 RABO 0200112244. The Benefits Service will make its first payments from this number on Monday, June 22, 2026.
Please note! Here too, if you make a payment to the old account number, the payment will be forwarded to the Tax and Customs Administration’s new account number for the time being.
Tax and Customs Administration warns against phishing
Due to the change in account numbers, the Tax and Customs Administration strongly warns against phishing. Criminals regularly attempt to collect non-existent tax debts from taxpayers via email, text message, WhatsApp, or by phone. However, the Tax and Customs Administration never collects taxes in this manner. If you are unsure whether a message is genuine, follow the step-by-step guide on the Tax and Customs Administration’s website and verify the account number.
