Self Employed on Dependent Visa in the Netherlands

Hi and welcome to the Forum.

You can work in the Netherlands on a dependents visa.  Whether you can work for a Swiss Company as a contractor will depend on whether you can set yourself up as a one-man business.  I'd advise you to speak to the KvK and ask them what they think.  This link will take you to their website; there is a contact page link in the top right corner of their site.

With regards to tax, I am not a tax consultant, what I say about tax is based on what I've read and heard elsewhere.  You will not be entitled to the 30% tax ruling because you will not be working for a Dutch company.  My advice would be for you to contact a tax consultant and ask questions there.

As soon as you have your visa and have registered at the Town Hall where you live in the Netherlands, you will have a BSN and can start work.

Hope this helps.
