Legal advice when registering with the Chamber of Commerce: Important to know


Questioner

My brother lives abroad and wants to register with us so he can register with the Chamber of Commerce. Does that have consequences for us? We own a house and live there with the two of us. In Heerhugowaard.

Questioner

What will be the business's registered office? Besides tax issues regarding benefit entitlement, you may encounter problems with your bank due to certain prohibitions on operating a business in the house, as well as on letting or renting out part of the house. Check the loan and mortgage terms and conditions, and you may encounter problems with other government agencies.

Questioner

Only his address, so he can register with the Chamber of Commerce (KVK). Everything else is handled through his online account.

Questioner

In principle, the internet doesn't qualify as a business institution, but it does reduce the risk due to storage of items and home visits, which aren't possible as a self-employed professional (?). The previous answer still applies. Are you checking the bank's terms and conditions?
