DAFT experiences?

Hi and welcome to the Forum.

I suspect that if all of your clients are in the USA, you will not meet the requirement of:

• Being of essential interest to the Dutch economy.
• The product or services you offer must be new to the Netherlands.

The Dutch Government (IND) used to have a section on its website devoted specifically to this subject, they have now grouped it into the self-employed permit section, so that's where you need to start; this link will take you straight there.

One last point, there are still some US-based websites offering this (example) service. They are quoting what used to be on the IND website, so it may be worthwhile contacting them and seeing if they can help you further.

I hope this helps.

Does the dutch government check your monthly income somehow? or just look at your total income in the end of the year?

Also for the daft treaty I believe i am exempt from meeting those requirements mentioned earlier.

Hello Fernando NZ16,

Hi again.

They don't, apart from the unique criteria (link), the only money value I can see described is that you invest at least €4500 of your own money in the venture

The only other item with a cash value I can find is a requirement to make a gross profit per month (with holiday allowance) of € 1,462.41.

I'd recommend you speak to the Dutch Government (IND) regarding this, they have a contact page and this link will take you straight to it.

I hope this helps.
