Tax and advice
Every Dutch tax matter, handled in English.
VAT, income tax, corporate tax, annual accounts and the M return. Filed on time, explained in plain English, and reviewed while you can still do something about it.
Photograph it and forget it
Letters from the Dutch tax office arrive at your address, in Dutch. You send us a picture of them, and we let you know in English when there is something to be done.
What we file
One team for the company and for you personally, so the two returns never tell a different story.
VAT
Registration, quarterly or monthly returns, and the awkward cases: foreign clients, reverse charge, digital services and customers outside the EU.
Income tax
Your personal return as an entrepreneur. Included in the fee for a sole proprietorship, quoted alongside it if you own a BV.
Corporate tax
For your BV, and your holding if you have one. Prepared together with the annual accounts so the two never contradict each other.
Annual accounts
Prepared, discussed with you and deposited at the Chamber of Commerce on time.
The M return
The return for the year you moved to the Netherlands. A different form, considerably more work, and the one most people get wrong on their own.
Payroll and dividend filings
Monthly payroll tax returns, and the dividend filing when you take one, including the checks that have to sit behind it.
More than bookkeeping
Filing is the floor, not the service.
Good bookkeeping records what has happened. The value is in the three moments where looking ahead changes the outcome.
These are examples of topics we may review. Any advice depends on your individual circumstances. You will not find rates or thresholds on this page: they change every year, so we look up what applies in your year when it matters.
-
Before your year closes
The last weeks of a financial year are when something can still be changed. We look then, not in April when the only thing left to do is report what happened.
-
When something changes
A first employee, a second country, a big purchase, a partner joining. Each is a moment where the right question saves more than a year of bookkeeping costs.
-
When a letter arrives
Dutch tax letters are addressed to you, because that is how the tax office works. You photograph them in the app and we take it from there. We let you know in English when something has to be done, and by when.
Where our work stops
Being clear about this up front saves everyone a difficult conversation later.
- We do
- Everything Dutch: VAT, income tax, corporate tax, payroll tax, annual accounts, the M return, and the advice around them.
- We do not do
- Tax returns and filings in other countries. Those stay with your adviser there, wherever home is; we take care of the Dutch side.
- We also do not do
- Immigration, permits and residence applications. That is a separate profession, and we will introduce you to someone who does it properly.
A price built around your business
Your legal form and your revenue decide which package fits, and the filings above are in it. The limits of each package are spelled out in the quote. Answer a few questions and receive yours within 15 minutes.
Questions we get a lot
- Do you give advice, or only file?
- Both, and the advice is the point. Filing is what we owe you; looking ahead is why you would choose us. Every package includes advice hours, and we schedule a moment before your year closes rather than waiting for you to ask.
- Can you speak to the Dutch tax office for me?
- Yes. The letter itself arrives at your address, because the tax office writes to you and not to us. Photograph it and send it over, and we deal with it: we answer in Dutch where a response is needed, and you hear from us in English if anything is required from you.
- I think I have been overpaying for years. Can that be corrected?
- Sometimes, within limits. Returns can be amended for a period after filing, so it is worth asking rather than assuming it is too late. What is possible depends on the year and the item.
- Do you work with my accountant abroad?
- It is rarely needed, so it rarely happens. We file the Dutch side, and if your adviser at home asks for figures or a confirmation, you get them from us. Ask us before you assume the two have to be arranged together.
- Is tax advice included in the monthly fee?
- Yes. Every package includes a number of advice hours per year. Only special situations fall outside that, and those are quoted before we start, so you are never surprised by an invoice.
