How much does it cost to set up a Dutch BV from the UK?

The legal minimum share capital required to incorporate a Dutch BV is just €0.01, so capital itself is not a barrier to entry. The real costs come from formation expenses, which vary depending on the chosen company structure, the notary's fees and any professional advisory or incorporation services used. On top of the one-off formation cost, a Dutch BV also has the KVK (Dutch Chamber of Commerce) registration fee, plus ongoing accounting, tax filing and compliance costs, which are separate from and recur alongside the initial share capital.
