Dutch company as the international holding
It is possible to structure an (existing) Dutch company as the international holding company of the entire group. This may have various tax advantages for your company.
One of the important regimes of the Dutch corporate income tax system is the participation exemption, under which all dividends and capital gains arising from a qualifying shareholding are tax-exempt. The Dutch participation exemption prevents double taxation of dividends and capital gains distributed from (foreign) qualifying subsidiaries to the Dutch holding company.
In addition, the Netherlands has concluded tax treaties with a considerable number of countries in order to avoid double taxation in an international context. In EU/EEA situations, Dutch holding companies can also rely upon the various EU-directives.
Apart from the abovementioned non-exhaustive tax advantages the Netherlands is also the perfect springboard into the European market, has a highly educated, multilingual workforce and has a great infrastructure.
We are more than happy to talk about the possibilities of a Dutch holding company for your business. Already convinced of the advantages? Please contact us for our assistance!
