Web-to-print for Dutch print businesses
Web2Print Solutions has no Dutch office, staff or entity; every engagement for a Dutch print business is delivered remotely from Hanoi, Vietnam by Netbase JSC. For Dutch buyers this means configuring a storefront's BTW invoices, iDEAL payment at checkout, PostNL or courier dispatch and AVG-compliant data handling, not adding a Dutch team.

What is web-to-print for Dutch print businesses?
Netbase JSC, which operates Web2Print Solutions, configures web-to-print storefronts for print businesses selling into the Netherlands. All engineering and delivery for Web2Print Solutions is performed remote-first from Hanoi, Vietnam. Web2Print Solutions has no office, legal entity, employee base, representative or local support window in any other location.
For a Dutch buyer, "market-correct" means a BTW-correct price and invoice, iDEAL sitting alongside cards at checkout, a Dutch postcode-and-house-number address format, and a carrier the buyer already recognises. This page is one of the markets Web2Print Solutions configures for; none of it requires Dutch-based staff.
Key takeaways
- A Dutch storefront needs a BTW-inclusive consumer price and invoice, or a net EU reverse-charge invoice for a business buyer in another EU state.
- iDEAL, the Dutch bank-transfer payment method, has to sit at the top of a Dutch checkout.
- Dutch addresses pair a postcode with a house number and a common house-number addition, which a generic address form often drops.
- The Dutch graphic-arts sector is fragmented: about 77% of firms employ fewer than 10 people, and public contracts above EU thresholds are published on TenderNed and scored on best price-quality ratio, not price alone.
- Every engagement is delivered remotely from Hanoi, Vietnam; nobody on the account is Dutch-based.
How does an order move from checkout to delivery in the Netherlands?
The buyer sees a BTW-inclusive price. At checkout, iDEAL is offered alongside card payment, and the storefront issues a BTW invoice. The order becomes a production job and, once produced, is handed to a carrier with a Dutch address, house-number addition included.

What BTW and invoicing rules does a Dutch storefront need to apply?
-
Standard BTW rate
Applied to most printed products and finishing add-ons for Dutch consumers
-
EU reverse charge
A VAT-registered buyer in another EU state is usually invoiced net, with the reverse charge stated
-
BTW invoice
Must show the seller's BTW number, the rate applied and the BTW amount
-
Public tender
Contracts above EU threshold values are published on TenderNed under the Aanbestedingswet 2012
What units, paper sizes and address format does the Netherlands use?
-
Paper sizes
A-series (A4, A5, A3), grams per square metre
-
Address format
Street name and house number, with a common house-number addition; postcode as four digits and two letters
-
Payment at checkout
iDEAL offered alongside cards, often the default for Dutch consumer buyers
What print companies and print-technology brands operate in the Netherlands?
A Dutch build sits alongside an existing market of print companies and print-technology brands:
| Print company | Segment | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Drukwerkdeal.nl | Online/retail printer | drukwerkdeal.nl |
| Helloprint | Online print marketplace | helloprint.com |
| Flyerzone | Online/retail printer | flyerzone.nl |
| Reclameland | Wide-format/signage printer | reclameland.nl |
| Eshuis | Labels/packaging printer | eshuis.nl |
| Bedrukt.nl | Apparel/promotional-product printer | bedrukt.nl |
| Print-technology brand | Segment | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Dataline (MultiPress) | Print MIS/ERP, Benelux market leader | dataline.eu |
| Canon Production Printing | Press OEM headquartered in Venlo | en.wikipedia.org |
| OnPrintShop | Web-to-print software | onprintshop.com |
Sources accessed 2026-11-07. The Dutch printing-services market is estimated at roughly 2.6 billion euros in 2026 across around 1,884 businesses.
Which carriers and payment methods do Dutch buyers expect?
PostNL, DHL and DPD are the usual carrier integrations. iDEAL is the payment method Dutch buyers expect to see first, alongside card payment; a business account on agreed terms is typically invoiced. Belgium more commonly expects Bancontact instead.
What privacy and accessibility law should a Dutch engagement respect?
A Dutch storefront sits under the EU GDPR, implemented as the AVG and supervised by the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens. The EU Accessibility Act is being phased in for consumer-facing online shops across the EU, the Netherlands included. Confirm both with the client's own counsel.

What is the time-zone difference with a team based in Hanoi?
Hanoi runs five to six hours ahead of the Netherlands, depending on daylight saving; the offset is a planning fact, not a service-level commitment.
Send a project brief with your BTW registration status, whether iDEAL is already contracted with a payment provider, your carrier accounts, and the platform your storefront runs on. For a comparison with a neighbouring market, see web-to-print for German print businesses.
Frequently asked questions
Does iDEAL need its own integration, or does a payment provider handle it?
Most Dutch-facing builds reach iDEAL through a payment service provider that already supports it, so the storefront integrates one provider rather than the bank-transfer network directly.
Can the same storefront serve Dutch and Belgian buyers?
Yes, with invoice, currency and payment logic keyed to the buyer's country, so a Belgian buyer sees Bancontact where a Dutch buyer sees iDEAL.
Do you need Dutch staff or a Dutch bank account to build this?
No. Delivery is entirely remote from Hanoi, Vietnam; the client's own entity holds the BTW registration, payment-provider contract and carrier accounts.
What happens if the Belastingdienst changes a BTW rate?
The rate table is built as configuration the client can update; a rule change needing new logic is a scoped change request.
