Your European entity. Dutch precision, US speed.
For US e-commerce brands and SaaS companies, a Dutch BV is the most practical way into the European market. The benefits: EU VAT registration, euro invoicing, EU consumer law compliance and a respected corporate home. We incorporate remotely; a notarized and apostilled Power of Attorney from any US state is all we need from your side. Founders who relocate themselves can use the Dutch American Friendship Treaty: residence as an entrepreneur with a €4,500 investment.
A Dutch BV with its own VAT number handles EU sales, OSS/IOSS registrations and local consumer rights properly, which protects your brand and your marketplace accounts.
Your US Inc. or LLC can own the Dutch BV directly, or both can be owned by a personal holding. We map the US-NL tax treaty consequences with your CPA before incorporation.
Dutch profits are taxed at 19% in the first bracket, with the participation exemption keeping intercompany dividends tax-free within the structure.
