Judge says Amsterdam wrongly collected millions in tax from business owners

A judge has sharply criticized an Amsterdam tax on business owners.

The ruling says millions of euros were collected improperly.

The tax is described as “sjoemelbelasting,” a Dutch term suggesting an improperly handled tax.

The case concerns money collected from entrepreneurs in Amsterdam.

The available details do not give the tax’s formal name or explain how it was calculated.

They also do not say whether the city will repay the money or appeal.
