Why founders from India choose the Netherlands

EU market access with one entity

One Dutch BV serves clients across all 27 EU member states. Invoice in euros, apply reverse-charge VAT correctly and contract under Dutch law, one of the most respected legal systems in global trade.

The India–Netherlands tax treaty works for you

Dividends, royalties and service fees between your Indian company and the Dutch BV flow under one of Europe’s most favourable treaties. We structure intercompany agreements that satisfy both tax authorities.

Built for IT and SaaS

Your Dutch BV holds the EU client contracts while development stays in India. Transfer pricing between the entities is documented from day one.

Which documents do you need?

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to travel to the Netherlands?
No. An apostilled Power of Attorney signed in India is sufficient. The apostille is issued by the Ministry of External Affairs.
How is my Indian company connected to the Dutch BV?
Either as shareholder of the BV or as a sister company under your personal holding. We model both routes with the tax consequences before you decide.
