Starting your own business

Do you consider yourself as an expat or international or a so called ‘newcomer’? Are you thinking about starting your own business in Netherlands (the area of Amersfoort or surroundings)?

Are you wondering about a lot of issues you would like to get more information about? Probably, you have many questions which need to be answered. Questions like ‘how to …’ and ’where can I …’ and ‘why should I…’. Or: ‘which information is most urgent to receive’?

It’s better to know which actions you have to take and which decisions you have to make, before you go to the KvK (Chamber of Commerce) to register as a new entrepreneur.

Do you want more information about these necessary actions and decisions and do’s and do not’s in advance?

Starting your own business, becoming an entrepreneur.

Is it that easy peasy?? Well, depending on your mindset and individual experience and background, it might be or not:

you were a business owner in your home country
you have already a well-thought-out and elaborated idea (business plan)
you know which service or product you want to introduce on the (local Dutch) market
you want to combine your current job with entrepreneurship
you are considering to quit your current job and start your own business
you want to be more than a stay home mum or dad
you are well educated and would like to do something with your knowledge and talents

Already registered your business at KvK?

Perhaps you’ve recently registered. And now you are thinking: what’s next?? Is starting you own business really a ‘piece of cake’? Well, ‘running’ to the Chamber of Commerce (Kamer van Koophandel / KvK) and registering your company is the easy part. 😊

However, there are consequences (obligations!) to the registration you have to consider. Tasks and things to take into account in your time schedule, which may influence essential issues you have been thinking and deciding about. For instance:

tax / VAT (Belastingdienst)
laws, regulations, visa’s
the Dutch (business) culture
childcare and after school care

(local) permits and professional requirements
market research
business networks and associations
do you need a business plan
and so on
