You are privately responsible for your business	Yes	No
Notarial act required	No	Yes

Take liability into account when choosing a legal form

Owners of unincorporated businesses are jointly and severally liable. If you choose this form, you can lose all your private possessions. For example, through poor results, claims, conflicts and problems with suppliers or staff. This argues in favour of a legal form with legal personality. Nevertheless, it is wise to also take other points, such as tax burden and costs, into consideration.

You can only make an informed choice if you have all the points clear. And know which factors weigh more heavily in your situation.

Customer experiences

Very professional and prepared staff. They have supported me to open my business and so far it is successful. I recommend Habermehl for starting up your business or administrate your finances.

I have worked with Habermehl, and Niek Pilgram to be precise, since I started working abroad more continuously since 2009. At all times I have found reassurance and confidence for my international tax matters to be well taken care of. This has worked both ways for me, having lived in the Netherlands with foreign income as well as living abroad with income and assets in the Netherlands. I'd highly recommend Habermehl for personal and business financial and tax advice.
