04 — Switching accountants
Switching accountants is easier than you think.
Most BV owners stay with a sub-optimal accountant for years because the switch sounds painful. It isn't. Here's the actual process.

Strategy call (free)
30 minutes to understand what you have today, what's not working, and what your business actually needs. You leave with a recommendation and a fixed quote.
- WEEK 1–2
Handover
With your authorisation, we contact your current accountant for your bookkeeping data, payroll history, and any open Belastingdienst correspondence. They're legally required to hand it over.
- WEEK 2–3
Operational on our system
We rebuild your bookkeeping in Exact Online (or keep your current system if you prefer), reconcile the opening balances, and confirm continuity of upcoming filings. Zero gap in compliance.
05 — Industries we serve
Three industries, with real depth.
Specialisation is what makes a B2B accountant useful. These are the verticals we work with most.
TECH & SaaS FOUNDERS
Recurring revenue, growing teams
Recurring revenue accounting, DGA salary planning, stock option treatment, international VAT (B2B reverse charge, OSS for B2C). We work with solo founders building products and growing teams scaling toward investment.
E-COMMERCE & DIGITAL SELLERS
EU VAT, marketplaces, drop-shipping
EU VAT OSS, ICP declarations, marketplace sales (Amazon, Bol.com, Shopify), drop-shipping VAT treatment, intrastat. The complex compliance most generic accountants get wrong.
INDEPENDENT CONSULTANTS
ZZP optimisation, structure switching
ZZP optimisation, when-to-switch-to-BV analysis, hour-administration compliance, international client invoicing, 30%-ruling-affected income. The majority of expat freelancers in NL fit here.
06 — Why founders choose us
Why founders choose us.
Most accounting firms scale by hiring junior bookkeepers and routing your work. We don't.
Built for the long term
92% of founders we incorporate stay with us for monthly bookkeeping and tax. Same team, file after file, year after year.
Plain language, no jargon
We explain why we're doing each step and what it costs you in tax. You'll understand your structure well enough to defend it to an investor.
Three languages, deep vocabulary
English, Dutch, and Ukrainian — across the full vocabulary of Dutch tax law, not just polite small talk.
Registered, not just experienced
Registered Tax Practitioners (RB). Member of NBA. The credentials that mean we can represent you to the Belastingdienst.
They turned a four-year tax mess into a single quiet hour on a video call. I've recommended them to half the founders I know.

08 — B2B FAQ
Frequently asked.
How quickly can you take over our bookkeeping?
Most handovers complete in 2–3 weeks. The bottleneck is usually your current accountant's response time on data export — by law they must hand over your records, but in practice it can take 5–10 working days. We can start in parallel using your bank statements and invoice records while we wait.
Do you use Exact Online, or can you work with our existing system?
Our default is Exact Online — it's the most robust platform for Dutch BVs and integrates cleanly with our internal workflows. If you have an existing system you want to keep (Snelstart, Moneybird, Twinfield, MUIS), we can work in that as well. We'll discuss on the strategy call.
What's included in "monthly bookkeeping"?
Bank transaction processing, invoice booking, expense categorisation, AR/AP tracking, monthly reconciliation, and your monthly financial summary. VAT returns are filed quarterly (or monthly for higher-revenue businesses). Annual financial statements and corporate tax return are typically billed separately as a year-end deliverable.
How does pricing scale as we grow?
Pricing scales with transaction volume, payroll size, and complexity — not arbitrarily. Our Starter tier covers up to 50 transactions/month; Operator covers up to 200 with up to 5 employees on payroll; Strategic is unlimited. We review the right tier annually, and bump you up (or down) based on actual usage. No bait-and-switch.
Do you handle payroll for foreign employees?
Yes. Payroll for foreign employees in NL involves the 30% ruling, tax treaties, social security coordination, and BSN registration. We handle all of it. For international groups with employees on secondment, we coordinate with your home-country payroll provider.
Can you represent us in a Belastingdienst audit?
Yes. As Registered Tax Practitioners (RB), we're authorised to represent clients in audits, objections, and appeals. This is included in our Strategic tier and available as a standalone service for clients on other plans.
Do you offer fixed-fee engagements or only subscriptions?
Both. Monthly subscriptions are the most cost-effective for ongoing businesses. For specific one-off needs — a single VAT return, BV formation, 30% ruling application, business plan — we offer fixed-fee standalone services.
What if we need help between scheduled reviews?
You can email us anytime — 24-hour response guarantee on Starter, faster on Operator and Strategic. For substantive advisory questions outside your subscription scope, we either fold them into your next scheduled review or quote separately if they're large.
Can we visit your office in Utrecht?
Absolutely. We're at Euclideslaan 55, 3584BM Utrecht — five minutes from Utrecht Centraal. Most clients work with us remotely (Exact Online plus video calls), but if you prefer to meet in person, we're here.
Do you sign an NDA?
Yes. We sign mutual NDAs for any engagement involving sensitive business information — IP, M&A activity, employee compensation. As tax advisors, we're also bound by professional confidentiality obligations under Dutch law.
