Local Corporate Solutions

About Local Corporate Solutions

Co-founded in 2010 by Harold Pothoven and Remko van Roekel, the Local Group works from the World Trade Center in Amsterdam through three entities: Local Corporate Solutions, Local Bookkeeping and Local Management, the latter licensed by De Nederlandsche Bank to act as director and provide registered addresses. The group handles international corporate structures for companies and wealthy families and helps foreign businesses establish a local presence. Its incorporation service covers Chamber of Commerce registration, preparing and reviewing the articles and other documents, setting up the legal structure and registering for VAT and corporate tax. Once the company exists, the team provides directors, domiciliation and mail handling, bookkeeping and annual reporting under Dutch GAAP or IFRS, payroll, tax filings and corporate secretarial work. A distinct service lets international businesses that are not yet recognised sponsors hire highly skilled migrants through the group, and specialised teams serve funds, SPVs and SPACs.
