The steps, in order

Before

Visa, application, insurance, tickets: we’ll help you prepare each step with the timelines in mind.

During

Your first steps on the ground: Collect your residence permit (verblijfsvergunning) at an IND desk · Secure a fixed address — required for gemeente registration · Buy a prepaid Dutch SIM card — no BSN needed · Tell the IND your date of entry before you fly (Argentina, Uruguay, Hong Kong, Taiwan) · Register at your gemeente and obtain your BSN · Open a Dutch bank account (bunq/ING/ABN AMRO — BSN within 90 days).

After

We’re here for the trip home too, from closing accounts to taxes and contributions you may be able to claim back. Find the steps for your destination in the app.
