Change of bank number for vehicle tax

How do you do this? It all depends on how you pay your motor vehicle taxes: by direct debit (automatisch incasso) or by bill. In the Netherlands, the Tax Authority (belastingdienst) is responsible for motor vehicle taxes. The direct debit and payment therefore go through the tax authorities. Do you want to know how you can communicate a change of account number to the Tax Office?

You have a direct debit

Do you want to change your direct debit account number? Call BelastingTelefoon Auto: 0800 – 0749 (from abroad: +31 55 538 53 74). There you can request an authorisation form for a direct debit from your new account number.

Fill in the form and send it to Belastingdienst. As soon as this has been done by Belastingdienst, you will receive confirmation that your new direct debit authorisation has been registered. The processing of a direct debit authorisation takes approximately three weeks. It is therefore possible that the tax authorities will once again debit the amount from your old account number.

You do not have a direct debit

Don’t have a direct debit and want to change your account number for tax refunds or for paying motor vehicle taxes by bill? How you do this depends on whether you are an individual or a business. See the options below:
