Huurtoeslag · 2026
Rent allowance estimate
Huurtoeslag is the Dutch government's monthly rent subsidy. If you rent a self-contained place (own bathroom, own kitchen), are 18 or older, and your income and savings stay under the limits, the Belastingdienst can pay part of your rent. This is a quick estimate using the 2026 numbers and the same formula as the official tool. For an official calculation or to actually apply, use the Belastingdienst:
