Need to dissolve a Dutch entity in 2026?
Talk to a licensed Dutch liquidator.
Trustmoore acts as liquidator for Dutch BVs, NVs, SPVs and foundations, and runs the corporate, regulatory and financial closure.
Need to dissolve a Dutch entity in 2026?
Resolutions to draft. Filings to sequence. Creditors to notify. A closing balance sheet to prepare. Publications to make. A board to keep out of the line of fire. Since the 2023 transparency rules came in, a Dutch dissolution is no longer a quiet end of a lifecycle, and the operational execution sits with whichever party can run the process inside the rules and stand behind the filings. Trustmoore acts as liquidator for Dutch entities, handles the corporate documentation and Chamber of Commerce filings, and runs the financial closure alongside your legal and tax advisers.
1. Picking between the regular and turbo route
Whether the turbo route is open to you depends on whether the entity still has assets or liabilities at the moment of dissolution. The wrong call adds months of work, or worse, exposes the board after the fact. Your legal and tax counsel make the call. We run the route assessment with them and prepare the supporting documentation.
2. Meeting the transparency obligations
The Tijdelijke wet transparantie turboliquidatie applies until 15 November 2027. It adds publication duties, an accounting filing through the dissolution year, and a public window in which creditors can challenge the dissolution. Trustmoore prepares the filings, explanatory notes and closing balance sheet inside that framework.
3. Keeping the board protected after deregistration
Director exposure does not end when the company leaves the Chamber of Commerce register. The fix is operational: proper sequencing, defensible documentation and clean filings. We run the process so the board's record holds up if a creditor or authority comes back later.
4. Holding the file for the seven-year window
Dutch law requires the company administration to be retained for seven years after dissolution. Trustmoore acts as custodian for that window, responds to incoming queries from authorities, provides copies of archived documents and supports restoration scenarios where they arise.
