PATAGONIA ANNOUNCES SUPPORT!

TOPIC: Patagonia Announces Full Support for UENL Initiative

DATE: 28 May 2018

DETAILS: Retail giant Patagonia has just released a formal statement indicating their full support for our initiative:

Ryan Gellert, General Manager EMEA, Patagonia: We respect the Dutch government’s right to change tax policies for both businesses and individuals.  However, I am extremely disappointed that the proposed reduction of the 30% tax ruling for expats does not include a notice period.  This will directly impact individuals who have made important professional and personal decisions based on contractual commitments with the Dutch government.  This feels akin to changing the rules in the middle of the game.   

Thank you, Patagonia, for your support!
