Who is a UBO?
A UBO (Ultimate Beneficial Owner, or in Dutch: Uiteindelijk Belanghebbende) is a person who holds an (in)direct interest in an organisation. This is the case if this person:
has over 25% of the shares in the organisation
has over 25% of the voting rights in the organisation
has greater than 25% economic interest in the organisation
is entitled to over 25% of the organisation's assets
has actual control of the organisation (for instance a former owner who is still involved in day-to-day business, or a board member of an association or foundation)
Does no one in your organisation meet any of the above descriptions? Then all the board members in your organisation are a UBO. These are the directors listed in the articles of association or registered with the Chamber of Commerce (KVK).
In the Frequently asked questions at the bottom of this page you can find more information to help you determine who the UBOs are in your organisation.
Why do we need your UBO declaration?
The law requires us to record your business details. And to make sure that these details are correct and up to date. If we don’t do that, we are not allowed to do business with you. Your UBO declaration is part of this requirement. That is why we ask you to check the UBO details that we have of your organisation. We also ask you to change or update them, if necessary.
