Netherlands Company Registration provides Indian entrepreneurs with direct access to the European Union single market of 450+ million consumers. The Netherlands is consistently ranked among the world's most competitive economies, with exceptional infrastructure, multilingual workforce, and a business-friendly regulatory environment. Dutch companies enjoy unparalleled credibility in European business circles.
The most popular structure for foreign entrepreneurs is the Besloten Vennootschap (BV) or Dutch Private Limited Company. A BV requires no minimum share capital (can be €0.01), allows 100% foreign ownership, and can be formed with a single director and shareholder who need not be Dutch residents. The Netherlands offers a stable political environment, strong rule of law, and excellent English proficiency.
For tech companies, the Innovation Box regime offers an effective tax rate of just 9% on profits from qualifying intellectual property. The standard corporate tax rate is 19% for profits up to €200,000 and 25.8% above that. The Netherlands has an extensive network of tax treaties with 100+ countries, including India, preventing double taxation.
At IncorpX, we provide end-to-end Dutch company formation services for Indian entrepreneurs. From BV registration with the Chamber of Commerce (KVK) to VAT registration, bank account opening, and ongoing compliance, we handle everything. Our network includes Dutch notaries, accountants, and legal experts to ensure your company is set up correctly.
