Exact Online
Exact Online and Twinfield dominate Dutch practice, and EU cross-border sellers usually run One Stop Shop reporting alongside the domestic BTW return.

Thirteen services across three teams, each described for the Netherlands specifically rather than in general. Compliance is deliberately a separate team from bookkeeping, so liability and pricing stay clean.
Dutch books serve two authorities from one ledger: the Belastingdienst for quarterly BTW, and the KvK for annual accounts due within twelve months of year end. Cross-border EU sales add ICP declarations on top. We keep Exact Online coded so the 21% and 9% rates, the reverse charge and intra-community supplies are separated at entry rather than untangled at quarter end.
Bookkeeping in NetherlandsDutch backlogs run on two clocks. The Belastingdienst wants quarterly BTW; the KvK wants annual accounts within twelve months of year end and within eight days of adoption. Late KvK filing is a directors' liability question, not only a penalty, so we rebuild Exact Online in period order, settle the BTW positions, and get the jaarrekening filed.
Catch-Up Bookkeeping in NetherlandsDutch files break on the reverse charge and on intra-community supplies. When 21% and 9% output, BTW verlegd and ICP-reportable sales collapse into one code, no quarter reconciles and the ICP listing disagrees with the return. We separate them in Exact Online, restate the BTW positions, and bring the accounts back to a Title 9 presentation the KvK filing can rest on.

We run payroll in AFAS or Exact and reconcile the loonheffingen liability to the ledger before each return.
Payroll in NetherlandsA Dutch controller closes for two audiences: quarterly BTW and ICP for the Belastingdienst, and Title 9 annual accounts for the KvK. Cross-border EU trade is where the controls matter most, because reverse-charge errors stay invisible until the ICP listing disagrees with the return. We own the close in Exact Online and keep both reconciled to each other.
Controller in NetherlandsDutch CFO work starts with the vennootschapsbelasting position, due five months after year end — 1 June for a calendar year — with extension available but interest still running underneath it. A virtual CFO models the taxable result through the year, keeps the quarterly BTW cash cycle in the forecast, and produces board reporting that does not wait for the jaarrekening.
Virtual CFO in NetherlandsThe vennootschapsbelasting return is due five months after year end — 1 June for a calendar year — with an extension available on request. Separately, the jaarrekening has to reach the KvK within twelve months. We prepare both from one closed set of Title 9 accounts, reconcile the year's BTW returns, and clear the ICP position before anything is filed.
Tax Preparation in NetherlandsBTW returns are quarterly for most Dutch businesses, due the last day of the month after the quarter, at 21% standard and 9% reduced. What catches EU sellers is the ICP listing: intra-community supplies have to agree to the return, and reverse-charge coding errors surface there first. We separate the treatments at entry rather than at quarter end.

Netherlands is priced per engagement, so the price comes from the file rather than a tier — a written quote in EUR within 24 hours of us seeing it.
Built for the Dutch pain points we hear most: Quarterly BTW cadence · ICP / EU cross-border reporting · KvK statutory filing.
We prepare to Dutch GAAP (RJ guidelines) or IFRS. These are the bodies that set that framework and the authorities you file with — linked so you can verify the standard rather than take our word for it.
Listed for reference. Salt Accounting Group is not stating membership, registration or affiliation with any of these organisations. Where a filing must be lodged by a registered local agent, it is — your agent keeps the lodgement and the professional sign-off.
