Annual Accounts & CIT FAQs

Here are some of the most common questions clients ask us when it comes to filing year-end accounts and corporate tax.

Can you handle annual accounts for holding companies or inactive BVs?

Yes. We prepare annual accounts for active operating companies, holding structures, and inactive or dormant BVs. Even if there is limited or no activity, Dutch law still requires proper annual reporting, which we handle efficiently.

What information do you need from us to get started?

We typically require your bookkeeping data, bank statements, VAT filings, prior-year accounts (if applicable), and any relevant contracts or loan agreements. If you use accounting software, we can often connect directly to streamline the process.

Do you also file the corporate income tax (CIT) return?

Yes. Our service includes preparation and filing of the corporate income tax return based on the finalized annual accounts. We ensure the tax position is accurate, compliant, and optimized where possible under Dutch tax regulations.

When is the deadline for annual reporting in the Netherlands?

Dutch BVs must prepare annual accounts within 5 months after the financial year ends, with a possible extension of up to 5 additional months. The accounts must then be filed with the KvK within 8 days after shareholder approval. Corporate income tax returns generally follow a separate deadline, which we manage for you.

What is included in annual accounts for a Dutch BV?

Annual accounts typically include the balance sheet, profit and loss statement, explanatory notes, and publication-ready accounts for the KvK. We also align these figures with your corporate income tax (CIT) return to ensure consistency and compliance.
