Your future

Upon graduation, you'll be a legal tax professional with a thorough knowledge of financial and business matters. This will give you a strong position in the job market. You'll be particularly well-suited to work at international organisations or international tax law firms, but the growing influence of international and European tax law in domestic settings ensures that you will also excel in your national legal tax system. Practically all our students find a job soon after they have graduated. On average, their salary levels are higher than for students who have specialised in other fields of law. Unemployment is also significantly lower for tax law graduates.

Meet our alumni

Graduates of the International and European Tax Law programme go on to build successful careers in a variety of sectors, from global consulting firms to international organisations and beyond. In this video, hear from one of our alumni about how the programme prepared her for the challenges of working in the dynamic field of international tax law.

With a strong foundation in international tax treaties and European directives, combined with practical experience gained through Problem-Based Learning (PBL), our alumni are well-equipped to excel in their chosen careers.

 Good to know: The larger Dutch tax consultancy firms in particular ask tax specialists to become members of the Dutch Association of Tax Advisers (NOB). The ‘Customs and International Supply Chain Taxation’ specialisation of the International and European Tax Law master’s programme is designed in a way that you will be able to fulfill the requirements if you have obtained a bachelor degree in Fiscaal Recht or Fiscal Economics at Maastricht University.
