Hey bunqers 🌈

Passive income is income received on a regular basis, with little or no effort required to maintain it. Rent, interest, royalties or dividends are examples of passive income. Usually this type of income is earned next to the revenues from the main activities of a company, but in some cases the main income source is passive income. If you’re not sure whether your company earns passive income, contact your tax consultant or accountant.

What does the passive income include?

Passive income includes: interest, rental income, royalties and dividends from third parties (unless the dividends are through management fees, salaries and sales as part of your holding company). Keep in mind that bunq supports 100% passive income!

If your holding or the company managed by the holding has passive income, you should fill in this form and provide us with it.

Did you just get a notification in the app asking for more information?

Information events are the fastest way to save time when opening a bunq account! They serve as direct options for you to provide documents or information directly to us through your app.
To find the events in the app, just follow the steps below:

Go to Profile tab
Tap on Events awaiting

When you get a notification in the app, you can provide the additional information and expected passive income percentage (if you have any) directly to us! 🎉

Why did I receive a notification to provide more information?

We are asking these questions because not all types of business activities are within our acceptance policy and we want to better understand what you are doing. This is in order to prevent possible unwanted restrictions on your account at a later point. To do that, we aim to gather as much accurate and elaborate information as possible at the very start of your journey with bunq 🏃
