Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions About Business Services in the Netherlands

Answers to the most common questions from expats and international entrepreneurs about starting and running a business in the Netherlands.

A BV (Besloten Vennootschap) is the most common and recommended structure for foreign entrepreneurs in the Netherlands. It limits personal liability, allows flexible profit distribution, and has a professional image. An eenmanszaak (sole trader) is simpler but offers no personal liability protection.

Company formation in the Netherlands typically takes 5 to 10 business days once all documents are in order. This includes notarial deed preparation, KVK registration, and tax number application. FIFEC manages the entire process to avoid delays.

No. Non-residents and foreign nationals can fully own and operate a Dutch BV. You will need a Dutch business address and a notarial deed – both of which FIFEC arranges for you.

KVK is the Dutch Chamber of Commerce. Every business in the Netherlands must register with the KVK to receive a business number. It is a legal requirement and the first official step in company incorporation. Without it, you cannot open a Dutch business bank account or sign contracts.

The total cost includes notary fees, KVK registration, and FIFEC service fees. We provide a transparent fixed-price quote upfront so there are no surprises. Contact us for a free consultation and exact pricing.

Yes. FIFEC specialises in Dutch subsidiary setup for international companies entering the Netherlands. We handle the full process including structure advice, notarial deed, KVK registration, and tax registration – in English.
