The Dutch Chamber of Commerce (KVK) has moved away from the familiar pre-printed yellow paper. Certificates of Origin (COOs) are now issued as PDF files. That means: no more printing on official forms, no more couriers, no more delays.
What changes for you?
Not much really. Except it’s easier and faster. You’ll now receive a fully formatted PDF with all standard elements included. Just print it on blank white paper or forward it digitally. The layout stays exactly the same, and the document remains fully valid and internationally recognized.
Here are some benefits that might make you happy:
This change means you will:
- Save time: Instant delivery by email
- Cut costs: No courier or special paper needed
- Reduce risk: No more lost documents
- Work sustainably: Fewer prints, no transport
- Stay compliant: 100% legally accepted
Another good step forward!
