Why-open-a-holding-company-in-the-NetherlandsThe Netherlands is a very attractive European country for doing business in. Investors come here because of the flexible taxation system and the innovation capabilities the government supports to mention just a few of the attributes the Netherlands has to offer.

Most foreign businessmen deciding to open companies in the Netherlands choose the private limited liability company (BV) because of the benefits it offers. Below, our Dutch company formation agents explain why you should choose the BV when registering a business here.

The BV is the most popular type of Dutch company

One of the main reasons for choosing the BV as a business form is its popularity. As mentioned above the BV shortcut comes form private limited liability company which is known as LLC in countries all over the world.

Among the characteristics of a Dutch BV, we remind the following:

  • - it only requires one shareholder who must be registered with the Dutch Companies Registrar;
  • - the minimum share capital for setting it up is 1 euro, a measure which was adopted a few years back;
  • - the liability of the shareholder is limited to the amount of money he or she has invested in the company;
  • - the company requires at least one director, however one of the shareholders can fill this position;
  • - the company registration procedure is quite fast due to the minimum documentation required.

We offer company formation solutions in the Netherlands and if you are interested in registering a BV we can help you.
