Working under the statute of student comes with some advantages:

  • As a job student you do NOT have to pay taxes on your incomes. ( Don't forget: if you earn more than a certain amount, your parents may well have to pay more taxes because you're no considered anymore as 'dependent'.

    In doubt? Please contact FOD Financiën.

  • When calculating your salary, only 2.7% solidarity contribution will be deducted as opposed to the 13% for a regular employee.
