The Sole Proprietorship Articles of Incorporation is a foundational document required when establishing a single-owner business (eenmanszaak) in the Netherlands. This document is typically prepared when an individual decides to start a business as a sole proprietor, requiring registration with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce (KVK). It outlines essential aspects such as business identity, ownership structure, operational framework, and financial arrangements. While not as complex as corporate incorporation documents, these Articles serve as a crucial reference point for legal and administrative purposes, ensuring compliance with Dutch business regulations and providing clarity on business operations. The document is particularly important as it establishes the sole proprietor's personal liability for business obligations and helps facilitate interactions with Dutch authorities, banks, and business partners.
