Best when
Dutch footprint is understood
What kind of Dutch
presence exists?
A company, branch and VAT-only registration solve different problems.
Dutch BV
A separate limited company formed through a Dutch civil-law notary.
Branch
An establishment of an existing overseas company, without a new legal entity.
VAT-only route
A foreign business without a Dutch permanent establishment may still need direct tax registration.
Founder relocation
Company formation and a founder’s residence or work permission are separate processes.
Netherlands Setup
Presence. Notary. Register. Tax.
A Dutch BV is not a residence permit.
Non-EU founders planning to live or work in the Netherlands must separately assess immigration permission.
What you receive,
ready to use.
We align the legal form with the actual Netherlands footprint, then coordinate notarial, KVK, address, beneficial-owner, tax and India-side requirements.

|---|---|---|---|
| Legal status | Separate Dutch entity | Part of overseas company | No Dutch entity |
| Typical trigger | Dutch operating or holding company | Dutch establishment | Taxable activity without establishment |
| Core route | Notary and KVK | KVK foreign-company registration | Belastingdienst registration |
