Read this page as one judge. Each weighs the same scores by what they care about.

The panel's verdict

e-Boekhouden.nl markets combined bookkeeping and invoicing, and the evidence is clearest at intake: documents and banking scores a flat 5, with bank, webshop and till connections, Scan & Herken capture, Autopilot turning purchase invoices and receipts into mutations, and payments matched automatically to open invoices. Tax and filings sits at a flat 4 — the VAT return is prepared automatically and sent with one button through a direct link to the Belastingdienst — though we found no public information on income-tax output, balance sheets or cross-border schemes such as OSS. Weakest is GoBD compliance at 0 to 1: the only official signal is "Erkend door de Belastingdienst", and we found no public information on posting immutability, change history or a Verfahrensdokumentation. Bookkeeping core scores 2 to 3, the underlying ledger out of view. The widest split is sovereignty at 1 to 3 — no sovereignty attributes are on record, and judges weigh the vendor's unmistakably Dutch presentation differently while we found no public information on hosting location, contracting entity or subprocessors. The only prices in the captured pages are the free ones.

Speaks for it

  • Documents and banking scores a flat 5, with bank, webshop and till connections, Scan & Herken capture, Autopilot booking of purchase invoices and receipts, and automatic matching of payments to open invoices
  • Tax and filings holds a flat 4 on VAT returns prepared automatically and sent with one button through a direct link to the Belastingdienst
  • Adviser handoff scores 4 to 5, with free administration linkage to a boekhouder or administratiekantoor, a directory of nearby offices and Autopilot tooling for accountants
  • Entry terms are free-side and exact — a free account including one free administration, a trial without obligations and 15 months gratis for starters

Report an error

Held against it

  • GoBD compliance scores 0 to 1; we found no public information on unalterable postings, a change history, statutory retention or a Verfahrensdokumentation
  • Bookkeeping core scores 2 to 3; we found no public information on double-entry structure, chart of accounts, opening balances or period closing
  • Beyond the VAT return we found no public information on income-tax or balance-sheet output, reverse-charge, intra-community supply, OSS or correction filings
  • No sovereignty attributes are on record; we found no public information on hosting location, contracting entity, subprocessors or retention after leaving the vendor
  • We found no public information on a named adviser export format such as DATEV, on scoped adviser access, or on a record of what the adviser changed

Report an error

Best for

  • You are a Dutch entrepreneur who wants receipts and purchase invoices captured on the go, booked automatically and matched to incoming bank payments
  • You want routine VAT returns prepared and filed to the Belastingdienst with one button rather than figures copied out by hand
  • You already work with a Dutch bookkeeper or administratiekantoor you want inside the same system through a free administration link

Report an error

Avoid if

  • Your books must survive a German audit; GoBD compliance scores 0 to 1 and we found no public information on a Verfahrensdokumentation
  • Your filings reach beyond routine Dutch VAT into reverse-charge, intra-community supply or OSS; we found no public information on these cases
  • Your adviser lives in DATEV or requires a named export format; we found no public information on any such export

The scores

Bookkeeping core

Show reasoning
How this is scored

Double-entry, the chart of accounts (SKR03/SKR04), postings, journals, opening balances and period closing — the ledger underneath the pretty screens.

0 — Income-and-expense lists only; no double-entry, no chart of accounts, no journal.

3 — Simplified bookkeeping suitable for EÜR with a fixed account list; no free posting, no period close.

5 — Double-entry with SKR03/SKR04, manual postings, journals, opening balances and a month-end close.

8 — Full ledger with cost centres, recurring and reversing entries, accruals, multi-year comparatives, and a documented close checklist with locking.

10 — An accountant's ledger: configurable charts including customised accounts, period locking with audit, foreign currency with documented valuation, group or multi-entity handling, and reporting that reconciles to the trial balance.

Report an error

The Bookkeeper

Payments automatically matched to open invoices and purchase receipts booked as mutations imply postings exist, but we found no public information on double-entry, a chart of accounts, journals, opening balances, or any month-end close with locking. From my chair this is a marketing page, not a ledger I could close a month in. 1

Report an error

The Tax Adviser

The captured page markets combined bookkeeping and invoicing, with purchase invoices and receipts processed automatically as postings into the administration — but I found no public information on double-entry, a chart of accounts, journals, opening balances or a period close. I cannot tell from these pages what ledger would actually arrive on my desk at year-end. 1

Report an error

The Auditor

The pages present bookkeeping and invoicing in one program, with purchase invoices and receipts processed automatically as mutations in the bookkeeping, but we found no public information on double-entry structure, a chart of accounts, journals, opening balances or a period close. A ledger I cannot inspect from the captured pages is, for my purposes, still a claim. 1

Report an error

The Founder

The pages describe bookkeeping and invoicing in one program, with purchase invoices and receipts processed automatically as mutations in your administration, which tells me postings exist. But I found no public information on double-entry, a chart of accounts, journals, opening balances or a period close, and for a twelve-person company I want to see the ledger underneath the screens before trusting it. 1

Report an error

The Integrator

Bookkeeping and invoicing in one program is the pitch, with purchase invoices and receipts booked as mutations and payments matched to open invoices — a real administration, not mere lists. But the captured pages stop at the surface: we found no public information on double-entry structure, a chart of accounts, opening balances, or period closing. 1

Report an error

The Skeptic

The page sells "Boekhouden en factureren op een manier die jij begrijpt" and purchase invoices processed automatically as "mutatie", which is more than an income-and-expense list, but that is all I can see of the ledger. We found no public information on double-entry bookkeeping, the chart of accounts, manual postings, opening balances or any period closing — the foundation under the pretty screens is unevidenced. 1

GoBD, immutability & audit

Show reasoning
How this is scored

Whether the record survives a tax audit: unalterable postings, complete change history, retention across the statutory period, and a Verfahrensdokumentation the vendor actually supplies.

0 — Postings can be edited or deleted without trace; no retention statement, no GoBD claim, no documentation.

3 — GoBD asserted on the marketing page with nothing behind it — no described audit trail, no documentation offered, no statement on retention.

5 — Postings become unalterable after close with corrections booked as reversals, a change log exists, and the statutory retention period is stated.

8 — Documented GoBD conformity with a supplied Verfahrensdokumentation template, complete and exportable audit trail, receipts linked to postings, and a GoBD-compliant data export (GDPdU/Z3) for the auditor.

10 — Audit-ready as a product feature: an independent GoBD certification or attestation published, Verfahrensdokumentation maintained per release, tamper-evident journals, retention executed across the full statutory period, and an export the Betriebsprüfer accepts without argument.

Report an error

The Bookkeeper

"Erkend door de Belastingdienst" is a Dutch tax-authority recognition, not a statement about record integrity; we found no public information on unalterable postings, a change log, the statutory retention period, or a Verfahrensdokumentation. If a German Betriebsprüfer arrived tomorrow, I would have nothing to hand over. 1

Report an error

The Tax Adviser

There is no GoBD claim, no statement on unalterable postings or a change history, and nothing on retention or a Verfahrensdokumentation on the captured page. The only official recognition shown is 'Erkend door de Belastingdienst' — the Dutch tax authority — which says nothing about surviving a German audit. 1

Report an error

The Auditor

The only audit-adjacent claim is recognition by the Belastingdienst, and we found no public information on posting immutability, corrections booked as reversals, a change history, retention across the statutory period, or a Verfahrensdokumentation. I arrive asking for the data export and the documentation, and the captured pages leave me empty-handed. 1

Report an error

The Founder

The captured page makes no GoBD claim, and I found no public information on unalterable postings, a change history, statutory retention or a Verfahrensdokumentation. The only authority statement is recognition by the Dutch Belastingdienst for VAT filing, which says nothing about whether records survive an audit intact. 1

Report an error

The Integrator

Nothing in the captured pages touches record survival: we found no public information on posting immutability, change history, statutory retention, or audit documentation. The sole governance-adjacent signal is 'Erkend door de Belastingdienst', which concerns the filing channel rather than audit-proof books. 1

Report an error

The Skeptic

The only conformity signal is "Erkend door de Belastingdienst", which concerns the Dutch VAT link and tells a German auditor nothing about record integrity. We found no public information on unalterable postings, a change history, statutory retention or any Verfahrensdokumentation — I have seen empty GoBD badges before, and here even the badge is absent, which is honest but worth nothing for this criterion. 1

Tax handling & filings

Show reasoning
How this is scored

VAT logic and the filings that follow: UStVA, ELSTER submission, EÜR or Bilanz, OSS for cross-border sales, and reverse-charge handling.

0 — No VAT logic beyond a rate field; no filings, no ELSTER.

3 — VAT rates and a UStVA figure to copy out by hand; no electronic submission, no special cases.

5 — UStVA prepared and submitted electronically via ELSTER, EÜR or a simple balance sheet produced, and reverse-charge and intra-community supply handled.

8 — The above plus OSS handling for cross-border B2C, Zusammenfassende Meldung, small-business (§19) and Ist/Soll taxation, permanent extension (Dauerfristverlängerung), and E-Bilanz where relevant.

10 — The filing year is handled end to end: every routine German filing generated and submitted electronically with validation before sending, cross-border VAT determined from the transaction rather than by hand, and correction filings supported.

Report an error

The Bookkeeper

The routine VAT return is prepared automatically and submitted with one button through a direct link to the Belastingdienst, which is electronic filing properly done. We found no public information on reverse-charge, intra-community supply, an EÜR or balance sheet equivalent, OSS, or correction filings, so the special cases are all unaccounted for. 1

Report an error

The Tax Adviser

The VAT return is prepared automatically and submitted with one button through a direct link to the Belastingdienst — genuine electronic filing, not figures to copy out by hand. I found no public information on a profit statement or balance sheet output, small-business rules, reverse-charge or any cross-border VAT handling. 1

Report an error

The Auditor

The VAT return is prepared automatically and submitted with one button through a direct connection to the Belastingdienst — electronic filing to the revenue authority, as I want to see — but this is the only filing in evidence. We found no public information on income-tax or balance-sheet production, small-business arrangements, cross-border schemes such as OSS, or correction filings. 1

Report an error

The Founder

Automatic VAT returns with a direct link to the Belastingdienst and one-button, validated-style sending is the strongest evidenced capability — the filing itself is done without me learning a portal. I found no public information on reverse-charge and intra-community handling, an annual income statement or balance sheet, or cross-border schemes like OSS, so the filing year is far from end to end. 1

Report an error

The Integrator

Automatic VAT returns with a direct link to the Dutch tax authority are well evidenced — the return is prepared automatically and sent 'met één druk op de knop' 'direct en foutloos'. Beyond that one filing we found no public information on reverse-charge or intra-community handling, annual accounts or income-tax statements, cross-border B2C schemes, or correction filings. 1

Report an error

The Skeptic

Automatic VAT returns with a direct link to the Belastingdienst, sent "met één druk op de knop" and "foutloos", are evidenced — genuine electronic filing, a level above copy-out-by-hand. We found no public information on an income-statement or balance-sheet filing, reverse-charge, intra-community supply or OSS, so the special cases and the year-end are undocumented. 1

Receipts, banking & matching

Show reasoning
How this is scored

How evidence and money get into the ledger: bank feeds, receipt capture, OCR, matching rules, and whether the digital receipt is legally sufficient on its own.

0 — Manual entry only; no bank connection, no receipt storage.

3 — Bank statement import by file and receipt upload as plain attachments; matching is entirely manual.

5 — Automatic bank feeds for the major German banks, receipt upload with OCR, suggested matches, and receipts linked to their postings.

8 — PSD2 feeds across many institutions, rule-based automatic matching with learning, e-invoice handling (ZUGFeRD/XRechnung) both directions, and replacement scanning (ersetzendes Scannen) documented so paper can be destroyed.

10 — The evidence chain is closed: every posting reaches its receipt in one click, e-invoicing inbound and outbound as standard, documented compliant archiving of the digital original, and matching accurate enough that exceptions rather than transactions are the work.

Report an error

The Bookkeeper

Bank coupling, Scan & Herken capture of receipts and invoices, automatic matching of payments to open invoices, and Autopilot turning purchase documents into mutations are all evidenced, so money and paper do reach the ledger automatically. We found no public information on e-invoicing formats, rule learning, replacement scanning, or documented archiving — and no exception-rate figures, which is what I judge capture by. 1

Report an error

The Tax Adviser

Bank, webshop and till connections feed the administration, payments are matched automatically to open invoices, and Scan & Herken plus Autopilot turn photographed receipts and purchase invoices into postings, so the receipt plainly reaches the ledger. I found no public information on e-invoice formats, rule-based matching with learning, or documented replacement scanning and archiving. 1

Report an error

The Auditor

Bank, webshop and cash-register connections are offered, payments are matched automatically to open invoices, and the Scan & Herken function plus Autopilot turn receipts and purchase invoices into booked mutations, so the path from document to posting is described. We found no public information on e-invoicing formats or on compliant scanning and archiving that would let the paper be destroyed. 1

Report an error

The Founder

Bank, webshop and till connections, payments matched automatically to open invoices, and a scan-and-recognise function for receipts and purchase invoices on the go — that is the matching-and-capture layer I pay for. I found no public information on e-invoice formats like ZUGFeRD/XRechnung, rule-based matching with learning, or compliant archiving of the digital original. 1

Report an error

The Integrator

Money and paper get in: bank, webshop and till couplings, 'Scan & Herken' capture, Autopilot turning purchase invoices and receipts into mutations, and payments automatically matched to open invoices. As the integrator I want the plumbing documents: we found no public information on e-invoicing in either direction, a documented API behind those couplings, or compliant scanning and archiving that would let paper be destroyed. Matching is described against open invoices rather than as rule-based bank reconciliation. 1

Report an error

The Skeptic

The intake chain looks real: a bank connection ("Koppel jouw bank, webshop of kassasysteem"), "Scan & Herken" for receipts and invoices, Autopilot turning them into mutations, and payments "automatisch aan openstaande facturen gekoppeld". We found no public information on PSD2 breadth, rule-based learning in the matching, e-invoice formats such as ZUGFeRD or XRechnung, or replacement scanning. 1

Tax adviser handoff

Show reasoning
How this is scored

How the books reach the Steuerberater — DATEV above all — and whether the adviser can work in the system rather than around it.

0 — No adviser access and no accounting export; the year-end is a pile of PDFs.

3 — Generic CSV or Excel export described as "suitable for your tax adviser", with no named format.

5 — A documented DATEV export (postings and, ideally, receipts) plus a read-only login for the adviser.

8 — DATEV export including receipt images with correct linking, or a maintained DATEV interface; the adviser gets their own scoped access with an audit of what they changed.

10 — The adviser is a first-class user: bidirectional DATEV exchange including corrections coming back, or a certified interface; period handover with locking, and a workflow where adviser queries are resolved inside the system.

Report an error

The Bookkeeper

A free link of the administration to a bookkeeper or administration office, an office finder, and an Autopilot aimed at accountants show the adviser working inside the system rather than around it. We found no public information on a DATEV export, a documented exchange format, scoped adviser access, or an audit of what the adviser changed. 1

Report an error

The Tax Adviser

Coupling the administration to a bookkeeper or administration office is free, there is a directory of nearby offices, and a whole Autopilot workflow is aimed at accountants — the adviser works in the system rather than around it. But I found no public information on a DATEV export or any named export format, on scoped adviser access, or on a period handover with locking. 1

Report an error

The Auditor

The administration can be linked free of charge to a boekhouder or administratiekantoor from a published list of nearby offices, and accountants get their own Autopilot tooling, so the adviser works inside the system rather than around it. We found no public information on export formats for an external adviser, period handover with locking, or an audit of what the adviser changed. 1

Report an error

The Founder

Collaboration with a bookkeeper or accounting firm is free, with a directory of nearby firms, a free administration coupling, and an Autopilot mode built for accountants — so the adviser works in the system rather than around it. I found no public information on a named export format such as DATEV, or on scoped adviser access with a record of what they changed. 1

Report an error

The Integrator

Advisers are a named audience with their own tooling, and coupling an administration to an administratiekantoor or boekhouder is advertised as free, alongside a directory of nearby firms. We found no public information on a named export format for the adviser, on what the coupled access permits, or on any audit trail of what the adviser changed. 1

Report an error

The Skeptic

"Gratis koppeling van administratie" with a bookkeeper or accountant, a directory of nearby offices, and Autopilot aimed at "boekhouders en accountants" show the adviser is meant to work inside the system. But we found no public information on a named export format — DATEV above all — on the adviser's access scope, or on corrections coming back, so I cannot confirm the handoff survives an adviser who lives in DATEV. 1

European sovereignty panel opinion

Show reasoning
How this is scored

Where the books live and who could be compelled to produce them — plus, uniquely here, whether statutory retention survives leaving the vendor. Independently sourced by the sovereignty pipeline.

0 — Non-EU vendor and contracting entity, hosting unstated or non-EU, subprocessors unnamed — with a ten-year retention obligation attached to data held abroad.

3 — EU hosting offered while the contracting entity is non-EU, or the subprocessor list is absent.

5 — EU hosting as standard and an EU contracting entity, but parts of the chain — OCR, AI categorisation, support tooling — are non-EU without an explained safeguard.

8 — EU or German hosting on named infrastructure, EU contracting entity, full subprocessor list published, and a stated export that satisfies retention if the contract ends.

10 — Sovereign and durable: German or EU hosting throughout, every subprocessor European, certification published, and a documented archive export that keeps the customer compliant for the full retention period after they leave.

Report an error

The Bookkeeper

The vendor presents as Dutch with a privacy statement and general terms, but the sovereignty attributes are empty: we found no public information on hosting location, named infrastructure, subprocessors, or an export that satisfies retention after leaving. An EU-facing vendor with an unpublished chain is unverified, not sovereign. 1

Report an error

The Tax Adviser

We found no public information on hosting location, contracting entity or subprocessors, and nothing on an export that would keep the books compliant for the retention period if the customer leaves. A Dutch-language site with a copyright running since 2002 suggests a Dutch operation, but where the books are actually kept is unstated. 1

Report an error

The Auditor

A Dutch-language site with a direct Belastingdienst link points to a European operation, but we found no public information on hosting location, the contracting entity, the subprocessor list, or an export that satisfies statutory retention if the customer leaves. Until those are published I cannot say where the books live or who could be compelled to produce them. 1

Report an error

The Founder

Nothing is on record about hosting location, contracting entity, named infrastructure, subprocessors, or what export survives ending the contract; the footer links to a privacy statement and terms, but no operational detail. With a ten-year retention duty on my books, I cannot establish from public pages where they would live or who could be compelled to produce them. 1

Report an error

The Integrator

The captured pages show a Dutch-market vendor — Dutch terms and conditions, a privacy statement, a direct tax-authority link — but the sovereignty attributes on record are empty. We found no public information on hosting location, the contracting entity, subprocessors, or an exit export that would keep statutory retention intact after leaving the vendor. 1

Report an error

The Skeptic

No sovereignty attributes are on record: we found no public information on hosting location, contracting entity, or any subprocessor list — the page is unmistakably Dutch, but a.nl address is not hosting evidence. Retention after leaving the vendor, the one question that matters for the statutory period, is likewise undocumented. 1

Pricing transparency not rated — the vendor publishes no price

Show reasoning
How this is scored

Whether a business can compute the real annual invoice — including the bookings, users, bank accounts and adviser access they actually need — from public pages alone.

0 — No public prices at all; every tier is a sales conversation.

3 — A headline monthly price exists, but booking or document limits, extra users or the tier where DATEV export begins are unstated.

5 — Tier prices public with billing period stated and the main limits given, but at least one commonly needed piece (DATEV export, extra bank accounts, adviser seat) sits in an unpriced tier.

8 — Every tier and add-on priced publicly with limits, overage, minimum term and VAT treatment stated; adviser access priced or explicitly free.

10 — Complete price computability: annual invoice derivable for a given transaction volume, user count and feature set, including overage and the year-end extras.

The Bookkeeper

The free entry points are stated exactly — a free account including one free administration, a free trial without obligations, fifteen months free for starters, and a free adviser link — but we found no public information on paid tier prices, booking or document limits, billing period, minimum term, or VAT treatment.

The Tax Adviser

The page publishes 'Gratis account inclusief 1 gratis administratie', a trial 'Zonder verplichtingen' and '15 maanden GRATIS voor starters!' — generous entry terms, but no paid price, booking limits, minimum term or VAT treatment.

The Auditor

The free offers are concrete — "Gratis account inclusief 1 gratis administratie" and "15 maanden GRATIS voor starters!" — and linking to a bookkeeper is stated as free, but we found no public information on paid tier prices, booking or document limits, extra users, or what the optional per-administration Autopilot costs. A business cannot compute its real annual invoice from these pages. 1
