Student Residence Permit Netherlands

#studentvisa

About

A Student Residence Permit is required to study in a Dutch university or university of applied sciences in Netherlands The. Persons possessing the nationality of an EU/EEA country or Switzerland, and their family members, are subject to several conditions.

Do you want to complete a portion of your study programme in the Netherlands and have a current residence visa for academic purposes issued by some other European Union member state? If so, you might be qualified for intra-EU mobility.

Eligibility

Some circumstances apply to everyone, such as:

  • You generate a reliable, sufficient, and sustained income. 
  • You have been admitted (provisionally) as a student to a full-time recognised day programme at a university or university of applied sciences. 
  • You generate a reliable, sufficient, and sustained income. 
  • You complete a minimum of 50% of the academic year's required credits.

Documents

Before applying for a study visa, gather the following necessary documents.

  • Identity documents, including a valid passport.
  • Documents regarding previous education.
  • A letter of invitation from the university.
  • Proof that you are medically fit.
  • Proof of financial stability.

Process

You need a provisional residence permit (MVV) to travel to the Netherlands. The Dutch consulate places a sticker known as the MVV on the passport. You might not always require it.

When to Apply
Wait for the confirmation from the university, check for the processing time and apply accordingly.

Visa Processing Time 
The Immigration and Naturalisation Service (Immigratie- en Naturalisatiedienst or IND) examines your compliance with all residency requirements. Additionally, it examines your adherence to the rules of your educational institution. The IND shall decide within sixty days.

How to Apply
Only a recognised educational institution can apply for a residence permit for study. A recognised educational institution has agreed with the IND. It is listed in the Public Register of Recognised Sponsors.

The educational institution applies for the MVV and the residence permit simultaneously. Your educational institution uses the application form.

Duration & Fees

A Student Residence Permit in the Netherlands lasts up to five years, depending upon the course of education.
