BITs
Holland also offers access to the Dutch Bilateral Investment Treaty (BITs) network, which includes a certain number ofjurisdictions. BITs can be used to make surethat investors in certain jurisdictions receive the same treatment afforded to domestic investors or investors from third states. Next to that, BITs can provide protection from expropriation. Under most Dutch BITs, using a Dutch company in the corporate structure may shield against any foreign governmental interference, with dispute settlement clauses that mandate international arbitration, rather than having to gothrough the domestic court system.

And corporate reorganizations can occur on a tax-deferred basis; this includes mergers, split-offs, share for share exchanges, and asset for share exchanges. Hollandalso offers a reinvestment reserve. This means that the taxation of gains realized on the sale or conversion of tangible or intangible business property is not held as a passive investment but may be deferred if the taxpayer intends to repair the property or reinvest the gain.
Dutch tax authorities
Last, but certainly not least, the Dutch tax authorities have an open attitude. In contrary to other countries, Holland offers the possibility to discuss tax positions in advance with the Dutch tax authorities. These discussions can be formalized in agreements (or rulings) with the Dutch tax authorities.
