Isn't the point of having a remote job to not care where the company is registered? Assuming you are in Benelux Area, what's the point of looking for remote company from Benelux Area?

In general, if it's a long term gig, you will still need to come into the office now and then. Once a week, one week every month or two months, whatever. So my assumption is that it must be somewhere accessible.

It is not only the "remote" feature, but the physical absence from the office that matters. Even regular employees are usually not allowed to work from home frequently.

Last time I saw someone working from home for 1 day, his manager sent him 2 screens email, how it should be an exception, not a practice, etc.

Exactly what I was thinking. It would be a problem is companies outside Europe wouldn't let you do remote work from Europe but that doesn't seem to be the case.

My guess would be time zone and language.

There's quite a few more countries that are in the exact same time zone. Language should not be a problem for most in the Benelux either as pretty much everyone under 50 has intermediate to good English language skills.
