Because the Dutch immigration system is not just a single package like the &#8220;2026 program&#8221;; it is based on <strong>purpose-based residence permits<\/strong> such as work, family reunification, entrepreneurship, investment, and education.<\/p>\n<h2>The Basic Logic of Settling in the Netherlands: Residence Permit and MVV<\/h2>\n<p>If you are not a citizen of the EU\/EEA or Switzerland, you generally need two things to stay in the Netherlands for more than 90 days:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A <strong>long-stay visa (MVV)<\/strong> for entry \u2013 may be mandatory depending on nationality.<\/li>\n<li>A <strong>residence permit<\/strong> issued for a specific purpose \u2013 work, education, family reunification, entrepreneurship, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The common basic requirements are summarized as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Valid passport<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>No risk to public order and national security<\/strong> (criminal record, security checks)<\/li>\n<li>In most permit types, proof of <strong>sufficient and regular income<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>For citizens of some countries, a <strong>tuberculosis (TB) test<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Short-Term Stay and the 2026 ETIAS System<\/h3>\n<p>If you are just saying, &#8220;Let me go and see the country first,&#8221; and your stay will not exceed 90 days, the classic Schengen regime applies. Many nationalities are exempt from visa requirements; however, towards the end of 2026, an <strong>ETIAS pre-travel authorization<\/strong> will also be mandatory for these groups.<\/p>\n<p>ETIAS is not a residence or work permit; it is only a pre-approval for short-term travel. For details, you can check the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.government.nl\/topics\/holidays-and-travels\/etias\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">official ETIAS page of the Dutch Government<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>If your long-term settlement goal is in mind, the main focus should be on the <strong>types of residence permits<\/strong> detailed below.<\/p>\n<h2>The Most Common Route: Work-Based Residence Permits<\/h2>\n<p>Most Turkish and other third-country citizens who settle in the Netherlands obtain residence through a job offer or professional activity. This will continue to be the strongest route even after 2026.<\/p>\n<h3>1) Highly Skilled Migrant Program (Highly Skilled Migrant \u2013 Kennismigrant)<\/h3>\n<p>This route is particularly ideal for the following profiles:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>IT specialists, software developers<\/li>\n<li>Engineers, technical experts<\/li>\n<li>Finance, data, artificial intelligence, biotechnology professionals<\/li>\n<li>Researchers in universities and R&#038;D centers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>The basic logic:<\/strong> If a company in the Netherlands wants to hire you and has the status of a <strong>recognised sponsor<\/strong> by the IND, they can apply for both the MVV and residence permit on your behalf through a single &#8220;combined procedure&#8221;.<\/p>\n<h4>Main Conditions<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Your employer must be on the <strong>IND recognised sponsor<\/strong> list<\/li>\n<li>Valid passport<\/li>\n<li>Commitment to undergo a <strong>TB test<\/strong> if required<\/li>\n<li>No risk to public order and safety<\/li>\n<li>Signed <strong>employment contract<\/strong> or appointment letter<\/li>\n<li>Salary above the <strong>minimum gross salary threshold<\/strong> defined by the IND<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The salary threshold is updated every year on January 1, and this indexing will continue after 2026. <strong>Important point:<\/strong> The amount valid at the time of application is taken into account. If you change jobs, the threshold at the start date of the new job will apply.<\/p>\n<p>Current figures can be tracked on the IND&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/ind.nl\/en\/required-amounts-income-requirements\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">&#8220;Required Amounts \u2013 Income Requirements&#8221;<\/a> page.<\/p>\n<h4>Process and Timing<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>In most cases, the employer applies for the <strong>TEV (MVV + residence)<\/strong> on your behalf.<\/li>\n<li>For recognised sponsors, the IND typically aims to conclude the application within <strong>approximately 2 weeks<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>After approval:\n<ul>\n<li>If you are outside the country, you will collect the MVV from the consulate and enter the Netherlands.<\/li>\n<li>After entering the Netherlands, the biometric procedures and the process of receiving the residence card will begin.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This route is generally the fastest and most predictable way to settle. However, elements such as the employer&#8217;s sponsor status, salary scale, and contract duration are critical.<\/p>\n<h3>2) Orientation Year Residence for Highly Skilled Graduates (Orientation Year \/ Zoekjaar)<\/h3>\n<p>If you are a recent graduate or researcher, it may be more realistic to come to the Netherlands first and look for a job within a year rather than finding a direct job offer. The Orientation Year provides exactly this opportunity.<\/p>\n<h4>Who Can Apply?<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Those who have completed a higher education program in the Netherlands<\/li>\n<li>Graduates from foreign universities meeting certain criteria (qualified institutions, specific level programs)<\/li>\n<li>Individuals who have conducted <strong>research<\/strong> in certain statuses in Dutch or EU projects<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Highlights<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Duration of the permit: <strong>1 year<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>During this period, you can <strong>live in the Netherlands and look for a job<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>For application:\n<ul>\n<li>Valid passport<\/li>\n<li>Diploma or graduation certificate (sworn translation if necessary)<\/li>\n<li>A Dutch address (can be temporary)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>IND fee is approximately <strong>\u20ac200<\/strong> (updated annually).<\/li>\n<li>When you find a job, you generally transition to a <strong>highly skilled migrant<\/strong> residence.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The strategic advantage is this: If you have an Orientation Year background, the <strong>minimum salary threshold<\/strong> expected from you in the highly skilled migrant route is usually set slightly lower than the standard. This makes you more accessible to employers.<\/p>\n<h2>Settling in the Netherlands through Entrepreneurship and Freelancing<\/h2>\n<p>Not only &#8220;getting a job in the Netherlands&#8221; but also &#8220;starting your own business&#8221; or being self-employed is a strong settlement route. Attracting entrepreneurs and investors will continue to be among the Netherlands&#8217; strategic priorities even after 2026.<\/p>\n<h3>1) Netherlands Startup Visa<\/h3>\n<p>Designed for entrepreneurs with innovative business ideas who want to establish a technological or scalable model.<\/p>\n<h4>How Does It Work?<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>1st Year:<\/strong> With the startup visa, you establish your company in the Netherlands, develop your product, and conduct market tests.<\/li>\n<li>During this process, it is mandatory to collaborate with a <strong>&#8220;facilitator&#8221; (incubator \/ accelerator)<\/strong> recognized by the IND.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Afterward:<\/strong> If the business model stabilizes and starts generating income, you transition to a classic <strong>self-employed<\/strong> residence.<\/li>\n<li>After <strong>5 years of legal residence<\/strong>, if you meet the conditions, you can apply for <strong>permanent residence<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Main Conditions<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Innovative and scalable <strong>business plan<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Contract with a recognized <strong>facilitator<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Valid passport (at least 6 months validity is recommended)<\/li>\n<li>No criminal record<\/li>\n<li>Health insurance in the Netherlands (approximately \u20ac120\u2013150 monthly)<\/li>\n<li>No age limit; spouse and children under 18 can be included with <strong>dependent residence permits<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This route is particularly attractive for technology-focused startups, SaaS, fintech, clean-tech, and deep-tech ventures.<\/p>\n<h3>2) Dutch-American Friendship Treaty (DAFT) \u2013 Special Route for US Citizens<\/h3>\n<p>For those with a US passport, there is a special self-employment residence route under the friendship agreement between the Netherlands and the US. This route is <strong>only open to US citizens<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h4>Basic Conditions<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Must be a US citizen<\/li>\n<li>Must establish a business in the Netherlands and own at least <strong>25%<\/strong> of it<\/li>\n<li>Your company must conduct <strong>economic activities<\/strong> in the Netherlands (not passive investment, real business)<\/li>\n<li>Your working status must be <strong>self-employed<\/strong> (you cannot be a salaried employee with classic worker status)<\/li>\n<li>Must invest at least <strong>\u20ac4,500<\/strong> in the business in the Netherlands<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This route will remain valid after 2026. A proposed law aims to <strong>extend the required residence period for citizenship from 5 years to 10 years<\/strong>; however:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>It may come into effect <strong>after 2027<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Even if it happens, it will not be applied retroactively<\/strong> (will not affect current residences).<\/li>\n<li>The 5-year residence rule for <strong>permanent residence<\/strong> seems unlikely to change.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Therefore, DAFT will continue to be a strong and predictable route for US citizens even after 2026.<\/p>\n<h2>Family, Education, and Other Residence Purposes<\/h2>\n<p>Besides work and entrepreneurship, there are other ways to settle regularly and long-term in the Netherlands.<\/p>\n<h3>Family Reunification (Spouse, Partner, Child)<\/h3>\n<p>If you have a family tie with a Dutch citizen, an EU citizen, or a person with a residence permit in the Netherlands, the following types of residence come into play:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Family reunification as a <strong>spouse or registered partner<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Status of an <strong>unmarried partner<\/strong> living in a long-term, verifiable relationship<\/li>\n<li>Residence of <strong>children under 18<\/strong> with you<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In these types of permits, generally:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A <strong>minimum income<\/strong> level is required from the sponsoring person (updated annually by the IND).<\/li>\n<li>In some cases, there may be <strong>basic level (A1) language and integration<\/strong> expectations for family members (especially in the future during the citizenship or permanent residence stage).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Education (Student Residence)<\/h3>\n<p>Coming to the Netherlands for a master&#8217;s, bachelor&#8217;s, or doctoral program is one of the smartest permanent settlement strategies for young people.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>First, you come to the country with a <strong>student residence permit<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>After completing your program, you have the opportunity to search for a job and transition to residence through the <strong>Orientation Year<\/strong> right.<\/li>\n<li>Most international students can complete the chain of work, permanent residence, and citizenship within 5\u201310 years.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Other Types of Residence (Summary)<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Au pair<\/strong> \u2013 limited duration permit focused on cultural exchange and childcare<\/li>\n<li><strong>Guest researcher<\/strong> \u2013 through universities and institutes<\/li>\n<li><strong>Medical treatment<\/strong> \u2013 with special conditions and duration limitations<\/li>\n<li><strong>Self-employment (classic freelance \/ consultancy outside of startup)<\/strong> \u2013 with scoring and economic contribution assessment<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Each of these has its own income thresholds, document sets, and renewal conditions; these are <strong>updated annually by the IND<\/strong> and should be checked on official pages before applying.<\/p>\n<h2>Transition from Temporary Residence to Permanent Residence and Citizenship<\/h2>\n<p>No matter which route you come from, if your goal is long-term settlement, you need to plan your timeline well.<\/p>\n<h3>Permanent Residence<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>General rule: <strong>5 years of uninterrupted and legal residence<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>This 5 years can consist of a combination of statuses such as work, family, entrepreneurship, etc.<\/li>\n<li>Generally, <strong>A2 level<\/strong> Dutch language and <strong>citizenship\/integration exam (civic integration)<\/strong> requirement is sought (with new regulations, the level may increase over time, so tracking is important).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Dutch Citizenship (Naturalisation)<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>For most people, a total period of <strong>up to 10 years<\/strong> is practically involved (especially in entrepreneurship routes).<\/li>\n<li>After passing the language and integration exams and proving ties to the country, an application can be made.<\/li>\n<li>In many cases, it is expected that you <strong>renounce your current citizenship<\/strong>; there are some exceptions.<\/li>\n<li>Legislative changes discussed in routes like DAFT, particularly regarding extending the residence period for citizenship; therefore, it is essential to check the current legal framework when planning.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Post-2026 Period: Salary Thresholds, Border Systems, and Risks<\/h2>\n<p>Key points to pay attention to in the Dutch immigration regime after 2026:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Annual salary updates:<\/strong> For many permit types such as highly skilled migrant, Blue Card, family reunification, the <strong>income thresholds announced by the IND each year<\/strong> will be critical.<\/li>\n<li><strong>EES and ETIAS systems:<\/strong> The EU&#8217;s new border control regime makes biometric data such as fingerprints and facial scans mandatory. There will be more checks and possible waiting times at entries and exits.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Tax regime and incentives:<\/strong> The scope of tax advantages like the 30% ruling is narrowing; conversely, different incentive packages may emerge to attract highly skilled talent and innovative entrepreneurs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In summary: After 2026, the Netherlands will continue to attract talented professionals and entrepreneurs with both <strong>more digital and controlled borders<\/strong> and <strong>more targeted immigration policies<\/strong>; however, it is unrealistic to expect the process to be &#8220;self-evidently easy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2>How Corpenza Can Help?<\/h2>\n<p>The decision to move to the Netherlands is not just about &#8220;getting a visa&#8221;; it is a multi-layered process involving business models, tax planning, company structure, payroll, and employee posting. Professional support becomes critical, especially in the following situations:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>If you want to settle by <strong>establishing a company in the Netherlands<\/strong> (startup, self-employment, investment)<\/li>\n<li>If you plan to <strong>send personnel from your existing company to the Netherlands<\/strong> (posted worker, EOR, payroll solutions)<\/li>\n<li>If you want to establish a structure operating in multiple countries and <strong>optimize tax and social security<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>If you want to move with your family and plan issues like <strong>income, housing, school<\/strong> in a secure framework.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As Corpenza, we provide end-to-end solutions in Europe and globally:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Incorporation<\/strong> (setting up a BV in the Netherlands, designing multinational structures)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Residence and work permit strategy<\/strong> (highly skilled migrant, entrepreneur, family reunification, etc.)<\/li>\n<li><strong>International accounting and tax planning<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Payroll, EOR, and posted worker<\/strong> models for assigning personnel abroad<\/li>\n<li><strong>Investment-based residence and citizenship<\/strong> scenarios<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Our goal is not only to obtain a residence permit but to help you establish a <strong>sustainable, legal, and tax-optimized<\/strong> life and business arrangement in the Netherlands.<\/p>\n<h2>Conclusion: Settling in the Netherlands Requires Strategy<\/h2>\n<p>Moving to the Netherlands is quite possible with strong work experience, a good job offer, or a solid business plan. However, after 2026:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Residence permits are more clearly defined,<\/li>\n<li>Salary and income thresholds are regularly increasing,<\/li>\n<li>Border controls are becoming more digital and strict<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>we will see a migration environment. This makes <strong>choosing the right route and planning well from the start<\/strong> more important than ever.<\/p>\n<p>If your profile, business goals, or company structure align with your plan to move to the Netherlands, addressing the process as a whole in terms of both immigration law and business-financial aspects significantly increases the chances of long-term success.<\/p>\n<h3>Disclaimer<\/h3>\n<p>This article is prepared for general informational purposes and does not constitute <strong>legal, financial, or tax advice<\/strong>.
