What is included in €69.99 per month?
Bookkeeping, VAT, ICP and OSS returns, annual accounts and Dutch income-tax returns, including Box 3, foreign income/assets on Dutch returns and partner returns. Foreign-country filings are outside the plan. AI supports documents and transactions; the customer-facing AI assistant is separate from professional advice and filings handled by the team.
What happens if I join partway through the year?
Fees start at the beginning of your joining quarter, confirmed by our team. Earlier bookkeeping for that same year is included without setup or extra catch-up fees. October–December costs €209.97 excluding VAT in total; the first payment depends on the month you join.
Can I cancel, and is my annual return still included?
Cancel with 30 days’ notice. A partial final month is charged in full. The full-year Dutch income-tax return is included if service remains active through 31 December of that tax year, even if you leave before filing. The effective service end date determines eligibility.
Who handles my books, and when can I reach you?
Piyush and Meiling handle the accounting work. Ask your accountant as many in-scope questions as you need under our good-faith fair-use policy. Support hours are weekdays 10:00–18:00 Netherlands time, excluding Dutch public holidays. Average replies take around two business hours; messages can be sent anytime.
