ponctuation

Non-PRO Dutch Other Economics translation
Dear translators:

could you tell me if in Dutch, the ponctuation used for numbers follows the same rules as in English.
i.e: 10,000 € (comas for thousands)
387.45 (points for decimals)

thank you!

No, the rules in Dutch are:
points for thousands: €10.000 (and the euro sign is placed before the amount)
commas for decimals: 387,45

In Dutch it's exactly the other way around: so 10.000 & 387,45
