- Incorporating public or private limited liability companies (NVs and BVs) or altering their articles of association;
- Establishing foundations or associations (including cooperatives) or altering their constitution;
- Drawing up, altering and executing wills;
- Drawing up or altering marriage contracts (i.e. usually ante-nuptial settlements) and registered domestic partnership agreements;
- Transferring registered shares;
- Legalising signatures;
- Providing for gifts and donations in a notarial instrument.
A notary often also performs other types of legal transaction and drafts other types of agreement, for example partnership agreements (commercial, civil and limited partnerships), agreements between cohabiters and provisions to protect private limited liability companies from third parties.
Of course the above mentioned is just a short list of the services we can provide. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or remarks.
Important Note
For non-Dutch speakers an interpreter is needed to execute the notarial deed. This will also be the case if only one of the parties is a non-Dutch speaker. We shall provide for the interpreter to be present. However, the costs for an interpreter (the amount of which depends upon the specific language required) are for the account of the client.
We would appreciate that non-Dutch speakers inform us well in advance of the appointment about the fact that in their case an interpreter will be required so we can timely arrange for an appropriate one.
