5. What role does the Managing Director play?
The Director of a company with limited liability established in the Netherlands does not have to be a national or a resident of the country.

In case the Board includes several members, the Articles / Memorandum of Association (AoA / MoA) must specify whether the Dutch LLC can be represented individually by each member, or joint action is required.
