1️. Register your business with the Chamber of Commerce, KVK:
A crucial first step is to register your business with the Chamber of Commerce, KVK. This opens doors for further steps.

License C is a must, but don't forget to obtain Code 95 for professional driving. Regular training is essential to renew this code every 5 years.

Understand the special rates for motor vehicle tax and the Eurovignette for trucks.

5️. Use the correct terms and conditions for transport:
Follow the general transport conditions for national transport and ensure you have waybills for international transport.

6️. Register your driving time and rest periods:
A digital tachograph is mandatory for vehicles over 3,500 kg. Don't forget to apply for your tachograph card.

7️. Get your vehicle checked regularly:
Maintenance is crucial. Regular motor vehicle tests (APK) for trucks and trailers are mandatory.

8️. Comply with the rules for international transport and drivers:
International drivers must pay extra attention to driving and rest times, location tracking, and rules for cabotage within the EU.

We provide more information to guide you through each step.

🛡️ Consumer Law in the Netherlands🛡️

Navigating the legal landscape of consumer rights in the Netherlands is crucial for every business owner. 

If you sell products or services to non-business customers, it falls under consumer law. This includes rights like warranty, cooling-off period for online sales, and regulations for off-premises sales.

💡 What is Consumer Law?
When a customer buys your product or service, an agreement between you and the buyer is formed. Your customer must pay the agreed price, and you, as a seller, must provide a 'fit for purpose' product.

🚫 Consumer Law Does Not Apply to Business Sales:
Selling to another business? Consumer law does not apply. Different rules, like no legal cooling-off period and alternate warranty regulations, come into play.

🛠️ Providing Warranty:
Products you sell must be of good quality. This is the legal warranty your customer is entitled to. If a product is defective, you must repair or replace it. Consider offering additional warranties for enhanced customer satisfaction.

🔄 Offering Cooling-off Periods:
Customers often have the right to a cooling-off period, allowing them to reverse a purchase. Exceptions apply, such as customised products or perishable goods.

💸 Setting Payment Terms:
You have the flexibility to set payment terms within your contracts or general terms and conditions.

🏡 Selling Outside a Store:
For off-premises sales like street vending or door-to-door sales, specific rules apply, including a cooling-off period for purchases exceeding €50.

🌐 Distance Selling:
If you sell online or via a phone, stick to distance selling rules. Customers usually have a legal cooling-off period, and you must provide clear information on prices and delivery.

🔄 Selling Subscriptions:
Automatic subscription renewals are not always allowed. Ensure customers are informed about renewal conditions.

🌴 Selling Travel, Holidays, or Timeshares:
Clear communication is key when selling these products, detailing aspects like the number of persons included, what is covered in the price, and any additional costs.

🔒 Protecting Personal Data:
If you collect customer data, you need to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

Stay informed, and ensure your business aligns with the legal requirements.
