This is a tricky subject, and I’m certainly not expert on this, but my understanding is that where a company is resident depends on where its central management and control are based. So if you are the sole director of a UK registered company but reside in the Netherlands, your company is tax resident in the latter. However, if your board are majority in the UK, hold meetings there, etc. your company is resident there, even if you reside in the Netherlands. Then, if you don’t pay income tax on your foreign income in the latter (the 30% expat deal), you effectively pay no personal income tax on whatever you earn through the UK company.
