What must a payslip show in Netherlands?
Article 7:626 of the Dutch Civil Code (Burgerlijk Wetboek) requires the employer to give a written or electronic statement of the wage amount, its components and the deductions. A payslip must be given with the first wage payment and with every payment that differs from the previous one; a monthly payslip is common but not required. A digital payslip requires the employee's consent and must be storable.
Items the rules require (in short):
- Employer's name
- Employee's name
- Pay period
- Hours worked
- Each earning itemised (basic pay, allowances, bonuses)
- Gross pay
- Each deduction itemised with its amount
- Net pay
- The statutory minimum (hourly) wage or minimum youth wage that applies to the employee
- The agreed working hours
- Whether there is a written employment contract, whether it is permanent, and whether it is an on-call contract
- The pension contribution paid by the employee, if any
- All deductions and set-offs specified so the employee can understand them

FAQ
Do I have to give a payslip every month in the Netherlands?
No. A payslip is required with the first wage payment and with every payment that differs from the previous one, for example after a pay rise. Many employers still issue one monthly.
What must a Dutch loonstrook show?
Gross wage and its components, deductions, net wage, the names of employer and employee, the pay period, agreed working hours, the applicable statutory minimum wage and details of the type of employment contract.
Can a loonstrook be sent digitally?
Yes, but only with the employee's consent, and the employee must be able to save it so it can be viewed later.
Does PayslipKit calculate loonheffing?
No. The preset only adds the line labels; you enter all amounts yourself.
