Set up a BV or convert your sole proprietorship

At some point, your business outgrows the stage where a sole proprietorship is the obvious structure. Revenue grows, risk changes, or you need a more professional setup. We guide entrepreneurs who start a BV or convert from sole proprietorship so the transition is legally, administratively and fiscally correct from day one.

The problem we solve

For many entrepreneurs, moving to a BV feels complex. Questions arise around tax burden, salary, notary steps, registration and opening balance. Without guidance, you may switch too early, too late or incompletely. We solve this with a practical step-by-step approach and ensure execution is correct.

What we do for you

We start with a clear assessment of your situation, then guide legal-structure choices, coordinate required notary and registration inputs, and set up the BV administration correctly. If you convert from a sole proprietorship, we also support the practical transfer of figures, obligations and tax points.
