Relocating to Holland

Expat life in Holland

Expats moving to Holland will generally find it very easy to adjust to the Dutch way of life. In fact, expats are so welcome in Holland that they are allowed to vote in local elections if they have residency status. Certain foreign workers are also permitted a 30 percent tax free allowance on their incomes, which coupled with Holland having one of the lowest unemployment rates in Europe, makes for a very attractive employment destination. Almost everyone is Holland is tolerant of non-Dutch speakers and will speak English to a high level. However, learning at least the basics of Dutch will definitely endear you to the locals and make your life easier, especially when it comes to employment opportunities where the ability to speak Dutch will be a significant advantage.

Travelling in Holland

If you are a EU national or British citizen you do not require a visa to enter Holland but you must hold a valid EU/British passport. You will also need to register at your local Municipality Administration (GBA) if you are planning on remaining in Holland for more than 3 months. Please note that – above the age of 14 – you are legally obliged to carry photographic ID at all times as proof of residency status while living in Holland. There is an on-the-spot fine if you fail to produce ID when asked so be warned! It is also mandatory to purchase health care coverage within 4 months of relocating to Holland.

For more information on health insurance visit the Dutch government’s official website here.
