The Articles of Incorporation Association (Statuten van een Vereniging) is a mandatory legal document required under Dutch law when establishing a formal association. This document is essential when individuals or organizations wish to form a structured entity for pursuing common goals, whether for professional, social, cultural, or charitable purposes. The Articles must comply with Book 2 of the Dutch Civil Code and include specific mandatory provisions about governance, membership, and decision-making processes. The document must be executed in Dutch before a civil law notary and subsequently registered with the Chamber of Commerce (KvK) to obtain legal personality. It serves as the foundation for the association's operations and is often referenced throughout the association's lifetime for guidance on fundamental matters.
