Eenmanszaak

[montvi]

I saw this word in a Business Register extract from the Netherlands Chamber of Commerce. The context was Legal form: Eenmanszaak.

The country is Holland

I need an exact explanation of the word and, if possible, the translation into spanish.

 

[sound shift]

I believe it translates into British English as "sole proprietorship".

"Empresa unipersonal"?

Thank you, but do you know if it is Company or is a personal buisiness, like "autónomo" in spanish.

 

[sound shift]

I'm afraid I know nothing about Dutch law. I'm sure a native speaker of Dutch will be able to help you soon.

Mi diccionario dice que en español es "empresa individual" y wikipedia lo confirma.

Eenmanszaak means the owner works for himself and is legally accountable for debts
A besloten vennootschap(b.v) is like a company so legally only the company and not the owners can be hold accountable for debt
