How to open a Dutch company remotely?

Yes. A Dutch BV can often be incorporated without physically visiting the Netherlands.

How remote incorporation works

Step 1: Submit your documents

You provide:

  • Passport copy
  • Proof of address
  • Shareholder details
  • Director details
  • Company information

Step 2: Identity verification

A local notary or approved verification process confirms your identity.

Step 3: Incorporation

The Dutch civil-law notary executes the incorporation deed and registers the company.

Step 4: Post-incorporation setup

Additional services such as:

  • VAT registration
  • Tax registration
  • Payroll registration
  • Bookkeeping

Can also be arranged remotely.

In practice

Many international entrepreneurs establish and manage Dutch companies entirely online while remaining abroad.
