Why Dutch businesses lose US revenue without a US presence

Last updated: June 2026 · By Shepherd Nyakudya, Founder of USLLCGlobal

The Netherlands already serves as Europe's logistics gateway. But selling into America through a Dutch BV adds friction at every step: US customers hesitate over international shipping and returns, EUR–USD conversion erodes margins on every order, Stripe Netherlands charges cross-border fees on US cards, and without a US EIN you can't hand a US business a clean W-9. A US LLC closes that gap — and a ready-made one closes it today, because the EIN already exists.

Barriers a Dutch BV faces in the USWhat a US LLC gives you
US customers hesitate over an international seller — shipping, returns, payment concernsUS business address that signals a domestic seller
EUR–USD conversion on every transaction erodes marginsUSD invoicing — convert to EUR via Wise only when you choose
Stripe Netherlands charges cross-border fees on US cardsStripe US at domestic rates (2.9% + 30¢, no cross-border fee)
No US EIN means no W-9 — US firms struggle to pay a Dutch BVEIN already in place — complete W-9s instantly
US consumers expect USD pricing and US return addressesUS bank account in USD — hold revenue in dollars
Amazon US, Shopify and marketplaces favour a US entityWyoming LLC — clean US entity for marketplace access

Ready-made vs. forming a new LLC

You can form a new LLC from Amsterdam — we'll do that for you for $549, with a same-day EIN. But "forming" hides a queue: Articles of Organization, state approval, then the IRS EIN. Until the EIN lands, no bank or payment processor fully onboards you. A ready-made company removes the queue entirely. It's already registered and in good standing, its EIN already exists, and the moment the transfer completes you can open Stripe US and invoice. Founders who need to move now buy the time back.

Mandatory annual compliance

Questions from Dutch founders

Why would a Dutch entrepreneur need a US LLC?
A US LLC gives Dutch entrepreneurs a genuine American business presence. You get a US address, US bank account, Stripe US with lower domestic fees, and USD invoicing. The Netherlands is Europe's e-commerce hub — a US LLC lets you sell directly to US consumers and businesses with a domestic payment and shipping experience.
Can I form a US LLC from the Netherlands without visiting the US?
Yes. Everything is done remotely. No US visa or SSN needed. We handle the Secretary of State filing, obtain your EIN, and guide you through banking — all from the Netherlands. A ready-made company already has its EIN, so it's even faster.
How does a US LLC work alongside my Dutch BV?
Your BV handles European business, the US LLC handles American clients. The LLC invoices in USD, collects via Stripe US, and holds funds in a US bank. Transfer profits via Wise at mid-market rates. Consult your belastingadviseur about transfer pricing and intercompany arrangements.
Is a US LLC good for e-commerce selling to US customers?
Absolutely. List on Amazon US, sell via Shopify with a US entity, process Stripe payments domestically. US customers see a domestic seller. You can use US fulfilment centres, offer domestic returns, and price in USD — all through your LLC.
What is Form 5472 and why does it matter?
Form 5472 is an IRS information return filed annually on paper with a pro-forma 1120. Required even with zero income. $25,000 penalty for not filing. Our Complete package and compliance service ($999/year) handle this along with your state annual report and registered agent renewal.
Does the US-Netherlands tax treaty help?
Yes. The treaty prevents double taxation and may reduce US withholding on certain income types. However, it does not eliminate the Form 5472 filing requirement. The interaction between Dutch and US tax treatment of LLCs requires specialist advice.
Is BOI reporting still required?
No. BOI reporting was eliminated in March 2025. Your main obligations are Form 5472 and your state annual report.
How does the Dutch participation exemption work with a US LLC?
If your BV holds the LLC, the deelnemingsvrijstelling may exempt dividends and capital gains from Dutch corporate tax. But the LLC's US tax transparency creates classification complexity. Get specialist advice from a belastingadviseur with US-Dutch cross-border experience.
