Frequently Asked Questions

Non-EEA graduates can apply for the "Orientation Year" visa (Zoekjaar in Dutch). This residence permit allows you to stay in the Netherlands for one full year after graduation to search for a job or start a business without needing a work permit.
You must apply for this permit through the Immigration and Naturalisation Service (IND). The application can be submitted up to three months before your current student residence permit expires. VU Amsterdam's International Service Desk (ISD) can provide you with general information and the necessary documents from the university.
The main requirement is that you have successfully completed a Bachelor's, Master's or PhD programme at a recognized Dutch educational institution, like VU Amsterdam. You must apply within three years of graduation, and you must have had valid residence permit for study during your programme. You also need to meet income and health insurance requirements.
