A company established outside the EU can hold stock at a Dutch warehouse and sell across the EU without setting up a Dutch company. The provider receives the goods, files the import declaration as your customs representative, and the import VAT is deferred under an Article 23 licence held through a fiscal representative, so nothing is paid in cash at the border. From that one stock point the warehouse ships consumer and business orders to every EU country, and goods for the United Kingdom, Switzerland or T\u00fcrkiye can leave again from bonded storage without EU duty having been paid. Providers in the Zendeq network take accounts from a few pallets upward, connect to Shopify, WooCommerce and the main marketplaces, and give you a named contact. This article covers what you need before the first shipment, how selling without a Dutch entity works, and where to put the stock; the detailed articles on each topic are linked throughout. It is written from the requests that reach Zendeq from companies outside the EU and from the questions the providers in the network send back before they quote.<\/p>\nYour company outside the EU<\/strong>No Dutch entity.
