Changing accountant in the Netherlands
Most people stay with an accountant they have outgrown because the switch feels risky. In practice a handover is routine when it is managed properly.
The situation
The common reasons for changing are the same: slow replies, no explanation of the numbers, work that only happens when chased, or a firm that has grown past the point of paying attention.
The hesitation is also the same: fear of losing history, missing a filing, or spending weeks repeating information.
Typical examples
- A BV moving mid-year, with VAT returns due during the transition.
- A company whose previous accountant left the year-end position unresolved.
- A director who wants a second view on how the books have been kept.
How Arquatus helps
We manage the handover
Records, ledgers, filing history and open items are collected from your current accountant and reviewed.
Nothing is missed in between
Deadlines during the transition are mapped first, so no filing falls through the change.
A review, not just a transfer
We check the opening position rather than assuming what we receive is correct, and tell you what we find.
Clear scope from the start
You know what is included, what it costs and who is doing it before we begin.
