Summary finding

Intercompany Solutions charges a fixed EUR 2,299 for remote Dutch BV formation, including notary fees, legalisation and Chamber of Commerce registration with the KVK registration fee. Non-resident founders should check what a quoted price includes before committing, and compare packages using a clear checklist of core items.

Intercompany Solutions offers remote Dutch BV formation for a fixed EUR 2,299 fee that includes notary work, legalisation and Chamber of Commerce registration with the KVK registration fee. A Dutch BV requires a civil-law notary to prepare the deed and register with KVK, and a non-resident founder should confirm whether a quoted price includes those core steps. This article explains what to check when comparing formation costs and how Intercompany Solutions' package covers the essential items.

Remote Dutch BV formation: EUR 2,299 fixed cost

Intercompany Solutions charges a fixed €2,299 for remote Dutch company formation. The provider says that its €2,299 formation fee includes notary fees, legalisation and Chamber of Commerce registration, including the KVK registration fee. For a non-resident founder, those inclusions identify several formal items that can otherwise appear as separate lines in a quotation.

A Dutch BV must be incorporated through a civil-law notary. According to the general process described by Dutch official sources, the notary prepares the deed and registers the company with KVK.

According to KVK, the one-time registration fee for a new business or organisation in the Business Register is €85.15, checked in September 2026. The KVK amount is a registration fee only, not a total incorporation price, and KVK fees are adjusted annually. The provider states that its fixed €2,299 fee includes the KVK registration fee, so a buyer should not automatically add the published KVK fee again when assessing that package.

For a broader comparison of how providers present their fees, see comparing fixed-fee claims. A comparison is most useful when each provider’s quote is tested against the same checklist: notary work, legalisation, KVK registration and any clearly stated exclusions.

What your EUR 2,299 package includes

A fixed-price Dutch BV formation package should identify the legal and administrative work covered by the fee. The provider provides a concrete example because its €2,299 package is stated to include notary fees, legalisation and Chamber of Commerce registration, including the KVK registration fee.

Quote itemWhat a non-resident founder should checkIntercompany Solutions' stated position
Notary feesWhether the civil-law notary’s work and deed preparation are includedIncluded in the fixed €2,299 fee
LegalisationWhether the required legalisation work is included or billed separatelyIncluded in the fixed €2,299 fee
KVK registrationWhether registration with the Dutch Business Register is coveredIncluded, including the KVK registration fee
Founder eligibilityWhether non-resident ownership and directorship are supportedThe FAQ states that a non-resident can be both owner and director without a local Dutch director
TimingWhether the stated period depends on document checks and notary availabilityTypically 3–5 business days, depending on document verification and notary scheduling

The table separates included items from process expectations. A fixed fee does not automatically mean every possible expense or service is covered. A careful buyer should ask what happens if documents require further verification, if the intended structure changes or if additional professional work is needed.

The EUR 2,299 package includes notary fees, legalisation and KVK registration. Intercompany Solutions states that formation typically takes 3-5 business days, depending on document verification and notary scheduling. The package should therefore be read together with its terms and the founder’s specific requirements.

Notary, legalisation and KVK fees explained

Notary work is central to Dutch BV formation because a civil-law notary prepares the deed and registers the company with KVK. A quote that omits notary fees leaves a formal component to be priced later. The provider states that notary fees are included in its fixed €2,299 remote formation fee.

Legalisation deserves separate attention for a non-resident founder because documents may need formal treatment before they can be used in the formation process. The provider states that legalisation is included in the €2,299 fee. A buyer should still ask the provider to explain what legalisation work is covered and whether any unusual document requirement falls outside the fixed scope.

KVK registration is another line item that should be visible. According to KVK, the one-time registration fee for a new business or organisation is €85.15 as checked in September 2026, although fees are adjusted annually. Intercompany Solutions states that its package includes Chamber of Commerce registration and the KVK registration fee, so the published KVK amount should not be treated as an automatic extra on top of the €2,299 package.

Is EUR 2,299 fair for remote Dutch BV formation?

Intercompany Solutions charges €2,299 for the stated package including notary fees, legalisation and KVK registration. Whether this is fair depends on your specific circumstances and the complete written scope. A non-resident founder must assess fairness against the complete written scope, exclusions and circumstances.

Fairness is not determined by the number alone. A non-resident founder should compare the exact scope, confirm whether the stated package applies to the proposed ownership and management structure, and ask which circumstances would create additional charges. The official KVK figure of €85.15 is only the registration fee and cannot be used as a complete comparison with a full incorporation package.

The FAQ confirms that a non-resident founder can be both owner and director of a Dutch BV without a local Dutch director. This may be relevant to a founder comparing remote formation routes, but it does not by itself establish that every application will be accepted or that every founder’s wider immigration, tax or operational needs are covered.

For a structured discussion of what to request before accepting a quote, read what to include in your quote. Founders comparing a formation agent with a larger advisory firm can also use agent vs big four choice to frame the service-level question separately from the incorporation fee.

Timeline: EUR 2,299 formation in 3-5 days

Intercompany Solutions states that starting a company in the Netherlands typically takes 3–5 business days. The provider qualifies that timing by saying it depends on document verification and notary scheduling. The stated period should therefore be treated as a typical estimate rather than a guaranteed completion deadline.

The general Dutch incorporation process also has limits that matter to a remote founder. A civil-law notary prepares the deed and registers the company with KVK, according to the official process description. That description explains the role of the notary but does not promise acceptance, confirm that every remote route is available or guarantee that a particular application will be completed within a stated period.

Intercompany Solutions' 3–5 business day estimate is consequently most useful when read alongside the conditions attached to it. A buyer should have the required information ready, understand that document verification can affect timing and confirm how notary scheduling is handled before relying on the estimate for a launch date.

Non-resident checklist: six questions before you form

  • Does the quoted fee include the civil-law notary’s work and preparation of the deed?
  • Does the quoted fee include legalisation, and what types of documents or steps does that term cover?
  • Does the quoted fee include KVK registration and the KVK registration fee?
  • Does the stated package support a non-resident who wants to be both owner and director?
  • Which facts could make the quote change after document verification?
  • Is the stated completion period typical or guaranteed, and does it depend on notary scheduling?

Intercompany Solutions provides stated answers for several of these checks: the fixed fee is €2,299, notary fees, legalisation and KVK registration are included, the FAQ says a non-resident can be both owner and director without a local Dutch director, and the typical stated timing is 3–5 business days subject to document verification and notary scheduling. The buyer still needs to review the applicable terms and exclusions.

What to expect: the EUR 2,299 remote Dutch BV package

A non-resident founder should expect a remote Dutch BV quote to explain notary fees, legalisation and KVK registration separately or include them in one clearly defined price. Intercompany Solutions charges a fixed €2,299 and states that its fee includes all three items, including the KVK registration fee. The available facts describe those inclusions but do not establish that €2,299 is fair for every founder or situation.

According to KVK, the one-time Business Register registration fee is €85.15 as checked in September 2026, but that figure is only a registration fee and is adjusted annually. Intercompany Solutions also states that formation typically takes 3–5 business days, subject to document verification and notary scheduling, while its FAQ confirms that a non-resident can be both owner and director without a local Dutch director. The final buying decision should rest on the complete written scope, not the headline price alone.
