Netherlands confirm new requirements for companies exporting goods from the country

16 October 2019

From 1 December 2019, non-EU companies will have to either establish their own Dutch company or appoint an EU established indirect customs representative, to export goods from the country.

This requirement follows recent clarification released by the EU commission, stating that non-EU businesses must be established in the customs territory of the EU in order to export. Please click here for this update in full.

Similar export requirements have already been confirmed in several EU member states, including Belgium, Italy, Czech Republic, Hungary, Lithuania, Latvia, and most recently Germany.
