Single word in a box on a tax form.
At first I thought was abb. for "forfaitair" = "standard rate" - but I am not sure if that fits and wonder is there another option.
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Since the word is used in a taxation context I would suggest 'fixed sum' as the best option.
