Sounds like a very different situation to what I'm used to in Germany. I can get my e-bike repaired and serviced at small local shops without any issue. And probably 80% of e-bikes use Bosch motors and batteries (the rest mainly Shimano and Yamaha), so bike shops will be familiar with those.
Van Moof is/was an outlier. AFAIK all other Dutch brands can get serviced almost anywhere.
