New VAT identification number for sole traders

All Dutch private individual businesses have received a new VAT identification number (VAT ID) from the Dutch Tax Authorities. This number is applicable as of1 January 2020 and must be used in all communication with customers and suppliers.

Do you have a sole proprietorship? Please make sure to communicate this number with your business relations such as regular suppliers, customers and your bookkeeper. Also, make sure to mention it on your letterhead, invoices and your website, among others.

Is Base Logistics one of your suppliers? Kindly send us your VAT ID via the contact section of our website, so that we can adjust your data in our administration.
