Our Dutch BV Company Formation Process, From Start to Finish

Step 1

Free Consultation & Business Assessment

We begin with a free consultation to determine your business objectives, company structure, and whether a Dutch BV company creation is the best option for your growth in the Netherlands.

Step 2

Document Collection & Identity Verification

Once you have decided to proceed, we will collect the necessary documents (passport, proof of address, and company information) and conduct legal KYC checks to prepare for Dutch BV establishment and registration.

Step 3

Drafting & Signing Incorporation Documents

A Dutch notary prepares both the notarial deed and the company statutes. Our service enables document signing through both in-person and remote options which we use to complete your Dutch BV registration at the Dutch Chamber of Commerce for online incorporation.

Step 4

Requesting VAT, Bank Account & Compliance Setup

Our services begin after company formation to help clients obtain their VAT number and establish a Dutch business bank account while maintaining compliance with Dutch regulations.
