Indexering alimentatie
Alimony indexation
The annual statutory increase of alimony amounts based on the wage index.
Alimony indexation is the annual automatic increase of alimony amounts as of January 1. The indexation percentage is determined by the Minister of Justice and Security based on the CBS wage index. Indexation applies to both spousal and child maintenance unless the parties have excluded it in writing. Indexation prevents the alimony from losing purchasing power due to inflation.
“As of January 1, the alimony was indexed by 3.4% in accordance with the statutory indexation.”
