Mosterd na de maaltijd... but this is the term the Belastingdienst uses. Sindy's answer abounds, to be sure, but it would help, Edirel, if you would not be so quick to select your answer so as to permit discussion, if required. See Kudoz Rule 2.11 in the 2nd link.

agree  writeaway: agree it may also be a valid option. too bad time wasn't allowed for peers to post their comments. I find it strange that most sites use ruling but the tax authority uses facility.

Reference information:

What does the 30% ruling mean?

The employer can reimburse the extra territorial costs of the employee tax free. To be able to do this the employee must hand over all the receipts and the employer must check and approve them. This can lead to a lot of work, especially if more employees are in a similar situation. To make it easier employer and employee can request the tax office (foreign tax office in Heerlen) to grant the 30% ruling to the employee for his activities for the employer. This way the employer can, once granted, pay out a tax free allowance of (roughly said) 30% of the salary of the employee. The 30% allowance will be included in the salary in such way that the costs for the employer will not be higher, while the employee has a higher net salary. The allowance will therefore not be paid on top of the earlier agreed gross salary. If a net salary agreement was made then the benefit will go to the employer.
