Netherlands Work Permit

Netherland immigration

Work Permit

The Netherlands is one of the best countries for tech. companies & also known as Europe’s most wired country.

It gives a work visa for 4 years which an applicant can apply for based on the eligibility criteria. It is known as Essential Starter Personnel Work Permit.

It is launched in June 2021 as a PILOT (temporary) program.

The Government has tried for the first time to introduce this as a temporary program until 2025. They will re-evaluate it in 2025 if they need to make it a permanent program and the processing time is 90 days.

The Essential Starter Personnel Work Permit enables candidates to work for any STARTUP of their choice in the Netherlands.

Every non-EU citizen who wants to work in the Netherlands has to obtain a valid work permit. Either the employee or their prospective employer may request the permit, although it is usually the employer who makes the request. A work permit is valid only for the employer who makes the request and ceases if / when the employee leaves the job. There is no general work permit for the Netherlands.

Expats from within the EU, the EEA (the EU plus Iceland, Lichtenstein and Norway) or Switzerland do not need a work or residence permit for the Netherlands, as citizens of these nations have to right to freedom of movement within each other. The most recent EU member countries for which full freedom of movement came into effect was Bulgaria and Romania at the start of 2014. As of July 1, 2018, people from Croatia no longer need a Dutch work permit to work in the Netherlands.
