Do your children attend daycare? If so, you may be eligible for a childcare subsidy. This is a contribution toward the cost of childcare. The exact amount you receive depends on your income, how many children you have, and the type of childcare you choose. There is also a maximum hourly rate for childcare. 

Read the terms and conditions and apply for the child care allowance at www.toeslagen.nl or call the Tax and Customs Administration at 0800 0543.

As of January 1, 2026, it is no longer possible to apply to the municipality for assistance or reimbursement of the child care co-payment.
