  • plz...I need your help....if you know the requirements for student visa in netherlands.......

  • Answer:

    To enter Holland/The Netherlands/Nederland for study purposes, inhabitants from most countries need a visa. This is a sticker placed in your passport at the Dutch embassy or consulate in your own country, but it must be applied for well in advance. Less than three months or longer For a stay of less than three months, you might need a ‘short stay visa’ (Visum Kort Verblijf), depending on your nationality. If you will be staying for longer than three months, you need an ‘authorization for temporary stay’ (Machtiging tot Voorlopig Verblijf or MVV). This requirement does not apply to citizens of the EU/EEA, the USA, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Japan, Switzerland or Monaco. Fast-track procedure The regular application procedure for an MVV may takes three to six months, sometimes even longer. The Dutch host institution can apply for an MVV on your behalf using a fast-track procedure. But to do this, the institution must give the authorities a guarantee, which they sign. Institutions will not always agree to do this. But it is worth asking the institution about the fast-track procedure, because it will save both time and trouble. Fee for MVV The administration fee for an MVV is €433 if you apply for it yourself and €250 if the Dutch host institution applies for the MVV on your behalf. Residence permit Within three days of arriving in Holland, all foreign nationals must register with the local municipality. Those intending to stay for longer than three months also need to obtain a residence permit (verblijfsvergunning). You may need this even if you did not require a visa to enter the country. The administration fee for a residence permit currently stands at €433 if you do not need an MVV and €188 if you do need an MVV. European citizens Nationals of EU/EEA states are not required by law to apply for a residence permit. Nor are they required to register with the Dutch immigration authorities. However, it is advisable to do this in order to avoid hassles when dealing with certain authorities and companies. Work permits International students, with a non-EU/EEA nationality, who do an internship or practical training as part of their studies in the Netherlands, may not need to have a work permit anymore after 1 October 2006. In the upcoming months the Dutch government will take a final decision on this proposition of the Dutch cabinet. If you have followed a programme of study in your home country, and you come to the Netherlands solely for an internship or practical training, you will need a work permit if you are not an EU/EEA national. Your employer must apply for this permit for you. You also need a work permit if you want to take paid work alongside your studies.
