Download: Form 30 Registration UBO for BV, NV, or European SE, or SCE

Please note: when you fill in this English form digitally, the corresponding field in the Dutch form is filled in automatically. Sign, print, and send the completed Dutch form to KVK.

If the BV, NV, SE, or SCE is already registered in the Business Register, you can register the UBOs online (only available in Dutch).

What is this form for?

On form 30, you fill in what interests a UBO has in the BV, NV, SE, or SCE. European legislation and the Trade Register Act stipulate that BVs, NVs, SEs, and SCEs must register UBOs.

Ultimate beneficial owners (UBOs) are the ultimate owners of an organisation or persons who make the final decisions in an organisation. A UBO is always a natural person: a human being. Read how to determine who is the UBO of a BV, NV, SE, or SCE.

KVK will enter the information you provide on form 30 in the UBO register. This register helps to combat money laundering, fraud, and terrorist financing.

Help with filling in

The dates you enter on this form may also be in the future. KVK will ensure that they are visible in the Business Register from that moment on.

UBO legislation came into force on 27 September 2020. If a person already met the conditions to be a UBO of the BV, NV, SE, or SCE before that date, enter 27 September 2020 on form 30 as the date on which the person became the UBO.

Appointment or send in by post?

Check whether you need to visit KVK or can send the form by post. The following questions will help you settle this.

Has a civil-law notary signed this form?

If the civil-law notary signs and sends the documents to KVK, you do not need to do anything.

Does a director or authorised representative sign this form?

Then send form 30 and the other documents to KVK by post. 

Do you need to visit a KVK office for another form?

If so, please bring all the documents you need to send, including form 30, with you to that appointment.

• Form 30

Is a person a UBO because they are a shareholder, hold voting rights, or have an economic interest?

Then KVK needs proof of the UBO's interest in the BV, NV, SE, or SCE. This proof must state the size of the interest.

Is a person a UBO because they are the person having effective control?

Then KVK needs proof that the UBO can make important decisions independently.

Is a person a UBO because they are a managing director or sole shareholder?

Then that person must be registered in the Business Register as a statutory (managing) director or sole shareholder. If this is not the case, you must register the managing director or sole shareholder in the Business Register.

Do you want to shield the details of a UBO in the register because the UBO is under guardianship or in receivership?

Then KVK needs an extract from the Central Guardianship and Administration Register showing that the UBO is under guardianship or in receivership. You can download this extract from rechtspraak.nl (in Dutch).

Do you want to shield the details of a UBO in the register because the UBO is under police protection?

KVK then needs the registration number of the Surveillance and Protection System as proof that the UBO is receiving police protection. Does the UBO not have a registration number? Then KVK is not allowed to shield the details on the grounds of police protection.

Are you registering officials, a sole shareholder, or a BV, NV, SE, or SCE as well as 1 or more UBO?

Then you must register them using other forms. Combine form 30 and all other documents.

Does a UBO live abroad?

Then KVK needs proof of that UBO's foreign residential address.

What is proof of a foreign residential address?

Proof of a foreign residential address abroad can be an original extract from the municipality's foreign population register. Or a legalised copy. A legalised copy from an official agency or bank showing the residential address can also be proof.

What is a legalised copy of a document?

A copy of a document is legalised by a stamp from, for example, a civil-law notary, consulate, embassy, or municipality.

What are the requirements for a foreign document?

The proof must not be older than 1 month. The document must be in Dutch, English, German, or French. If this is not the case, you must have the document translated. KVK will then need the translation and the original document.
