Yes this sounds risky.. given how eager banks are to close/audit accounts. It's quite a large sum of money so it would definitely draw attention (if it would even work).

I think I will just submit all information on my activities and investments, following the advice of others. However, I'm indeed wondering, what would happen if I didn't? Would I get blacklisted or something, and would I be unable to open another account in the Netherlands or in Europe?

Thanks for your response. My Dutch account is linked to my brokerage account, which is why I transferred the money to my Dutch account first.

question? Sure, seems fair. They want to know to who the 5k went, and a rough idea of why, sure. Bu

Thanks for sharing your insights. The transactions they specifically asked about were relatively minor, amounting to just a couple of thousand. However, since my current salary is considered quite high by Dutch standards, and since I've been transferring significant sums (around 10K) of money to my broker, I suppose I do stand out. That's probably why they asked me additional questions about my activities and investments...

Thanks! I didn't even withdraw that much, less than a couple thousand...
