VerifiedGet matched with vetted international mover We match you with only accredited partner for your route: fewer calls, less stress, and a clearer quote.
Business removals to the Netherlands cover two types of move. The first is relocating an employee with household goods. The second is moving office furniture, equipment or an entire business operation. Both types have different planning requirements. Both need a FIDI-certified removal company. They must know Dutch customs and corporate relocation procedures. A good partner mover will have handled both types before.
The Netherlands is a major European business hub. It's one of the top places for UK company moves. Many come here each year. Amsterdam hosts hundreds of international HQs. Rotterdam is the main port for European trade. The Hague is home to the ICC, ICJ, OPCW and diplomatic missions. Eindhoven is the heart of Brainport, home to ASML and Philips. Your partner mover knows each city's access and customs rules.

The Netherlands uses the euro. The currency code is EUR. Once you arrive, most costs will be in euros. That means rent, bills and food. Sort your exchange early. It saves money. It saves stress.
Start by matching your enquiry with a FIDI-certified removal company through International Removals Companies. They handle the survey, route planning, Dutch customs (vrijstelling voor verhuisboedel filing, AGS declaration) and delivery to your Dutch address. They can also advise on the 30% ruling if your employer requires it for your relocation package.
The 30% ruling is a Dutch tax benefit for skilled migrants. If eligible, 30% of the salary is paid tax-free. It doesn't affect the removal cost. It affects the pay package. HR usually deals with it. Your removal company doesn't handle the 30% ruling. But they can advise on what documents they need to work with it.
Amsterdam has the highest concentration of international headquarters and tech companies. Eindhoven is the centre of the Brainport technology corridor with ASML and Philips. The Hague houses international institutions and diplomatic missions. Rotterdam is the gateway for European logistics. Utrecht has a strong university and life-sciences sector. Amstelveen is the expat suburb for Amsterdam with KLM and international schools.
For employee household goods, the vrijstelling voor verhuisboedel exemption removes import duty and 21% BTW on qualifying items. For commercial office equipment and business goods, different customs rules apply. Your FIDI-certified partner mover advises on the correct procedure for each type of goods in your business removal.
A dedicated vehicle removal from the UK to the Netherlands takes 1 to 2 days once loaded. Partial office removals using a shared service take 3 to 7 days. Large office relocations are planned in detail with your partner mover to minimise downtime.
It's the Dutch transfer-of-residence exemption. It removes import duty and BTW (21%) on household goods owned for at least six months. The employee must import everything within 12 months of taking up residence. Your partner mover files the claim through the Dutch Customs AGS system with a signed inboedellijst. The employee can't apply themselves.
Yes. Commercial office equipment is handled separately from household goods at customs. Your FIDI-certified partner mover advises on the correct classification and procedure for office equipment, IT hardware and business assets. Different rules apply compared to personal household goods.
