Explanation of the online tool
In our online child support calculation tool, we use data from NIBUD and the child support standards used by judges (found in the so-called TREMA report).
NIBUD: the cost of children
When calculating child support, we use basic data from the National Institute for Budget Information (NIBUD). The NIBUD has used figures from the CBS to calculate how much a child costs on average. This depends, among other things, on the net family income. If a child lives in a family that has more to spend, the costs of a child/children will usually also be higher.
TREMA report and alimony standards: the calculation method for alimony
Using the basic data from NIBUD, the amount of child support can be calculated. The calculation method for this is laid down in alimony standards that are also used by the courts.
