Using a Dutch certificate of incorporation in the United States.
Need a Dutch certificate of incorporation for a US bank, investor, attorney or corporate procedure? I help review which Dutch formation record is suitable and whether a certified copy, apostille, translation or delivery is required.

Choose Apostille Submission for a clear single-step route, or Document Coordination for a more complex, multi-step corporate-record process.
Apostille Submission
For cases where the correct Dutch incorporation document is already available and mainly needs apostille submission.
- For straightforward Dutch apostille handling
- Useful when the recipient’s instruction is already clear
- WhatsApp updates during the process
Document Coordination
Best for multi-step routes involving notarial formation records, certified copies, KvK support, apostille, translation and delivery.
- For complex, multi-step US document routes
- Coordination across all agreed document steps
- One clear point of contact throughout
Which incorporation record may be needed?
The US recipient may require official evidence of formation rather than an informal company document or scan.
Notarial deed of incorporation
The original formation deed records the company’s incorporation and initial legal structure.
Certified incorporation copy
May be required when the recipient needs an official copy issued or certified through the Dutch notarial route.
Supporting corporate set
The route may include a certified copy, KvK extract, apostille, translation and international delivery.
How the process works
The US request is checked before retrieving, certifying or apostilling the wrong formation record.

Frequently asked questions
Can a Dutch certificate of incorporation be used in the United States?
Usually yes, although the recipient may require a certified notarial copy, apostille, translation or supporting KvK record.
Does the Netherlands issue a standard certificate of incorporation?
Not always in the same form used in some countries. Dutch incorporation is generally evidenced through the notarial deed of incorporation and related company-registration records.
Does the incorporation document need an apostille?
It may. The correct route depends on whether the recipient accepts a notarial copy, KvK record or another certified formation document.
Can Apostille Assist coordinate a multi-step route?
Yes. I can review the request and coordinate the agreed Dutch-side notary, certified-copy, KvK, apostille, translation and delivery steps.
