What is the 30% ruling (30%-regeling) for skilled migrants?

The 30% ruling (30%-regeling) is a tax benefit for some incoming skilled migrants that treats part of your salary as a tax-free allowance, increasing your net income. Because it raises your take-home pay, it can improve what you are able to afford, although it is temporary and reviewed each year. Some lenders take the ruling into account when assessing your mortgage.
