How to register a company in the Netherlands

As I pointed out before there are several websites that can offer assistance for the registration or your foreign business or even setup new Netherlands business. When you want to register a business in the Netherlands my advice is to have this information to hand:

 

  • If the shareholder(s) and director(s) is (are) an individual, we need from each individual:
    • copy of his/her passport
    • proof of the living address younger than 2 months
    • marital status
  • If the shareholder(s) and/or director(s) is (are) a company, we need from each company:
    • an original extract from the foreign trade register. If the director(s) is(are) not mentioned in this document, than we need a legal opinion from a notary in that country stating who the director(s) is(are) of the Ltd and their legal capacity.  
    • UBO-declaration (Ultimate Benificial Owner)
    • a copy of the deed of incorporation.

 

Yes, I would like to point out that it is really as simple as it looks.
