EU Residence Rights
Nov 2014
Whatever your reason for moving to another EU country, don't get tied up in red tape.
In principle, all EU citizens are entitled to settle in another EU country, however all sorts of questions may arise as to the formalities to be completed and other residence rights and obligations:
Do I need to register? What documents will I need? Can my family come with me? How long can I stay? What if my spouse doesn't have a job?

Single Permit
IND Nov 2014
The single permit was introduced on 1 April, 2014. A single permit gives foreign nationals from outside the EU, Liechtenstein, Norway, Iceland and Switzerland the right to reside and work in the Netherlands for a period of more than three months. The single permit applies to the majority of labour migrants from outside the EU and the above countries.
A single procedure
A single permit is a combination between a residence permit and a work permit. So as from 1 April, a foreign national who wants to come to the Netherlands to work for more than three months (or his or her employer) only needs to start a single procedure.
