Netherlands: the essentials of doing business online
The Netherlands is one of Europe's most digital markets: compact, comfortable with English and served by dense parcel-point networks. Doing business online there means a KVK registration, BTW at 21% or 9%, payments led by iDEAL | Wero, and consumer and data rules enforced by the ACM and the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens.

Mandatory pages and compliance
- KVK-nummer + btw-idDutch businesses must show their KVK (Chamber of Commerce) number on the website, plus name, address, e-mail and btw-id (VAT ID); sole traders use the btw-id, not their old BSN-based tax number.
- Privacyverklaring (AVG)AVG is the Dutch name for the GDPR: every site that collects personal data needs a clear privacy statement, and the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens supervises and can impose fines.
- Algemene voorwaardenWebshops normally rely on general terms; Dutch law requires them to be made available electronically before or when the contract is concluded, in a form the customer can save.
- Herroepingsrecht (14 dagen) + herroepingsknopConsumers may withdraw from online purchases within 14 days without giving a reason; since 19 June 2026 webshops must also offer a clearly labelled online withdrawal function.

Netherlands: frequently asked questions
- Which payment methods should a Dutch webshop offer?
- iDEAL | Wero handles the clear majority of Dutch online payments; there is no legal duty to offer it, but a shop without it loses customers. Add cards, Klarna or Riverty for pay-later, PayPal, and Bancontact for Belgian buyers. Via Stripe we enable iDEAL | Wero, Klarna, Bancontact and PayPal.
- Does a Dutch business website need a KVK number?
- Yes. Businesses registered in the Dutch Trade Register must show their KVK number on their website, and EU e-commerce rules add the company name, geographic address, e-mail and btw-id. We place these details in the footer and on the contact or about page.
- Which marketplaces should I start with in the Netherlands?
- bol is the largest local marketplace and also sells into Belgium; Amazon.nl, Zalando for fashion and Kaufland.nl, which opened in 2026, are the main alternatives, while Marktplaats and Vinted lead second-hand. Zunapro connects Amazon, Zalando and Kaufland today and builds a bol integration on request.
