VISITS OF MORE THAN 3 MONTHS (90 DAYS)
If you intend to visit the Netherlands or Schengen area for a period longer than 90 days, a Schengen visa cannot be used. Instead, you need to apply for a (provisional) Residence Permit at the Embassy or Consulate of the country which is your main destination.
Nationals from one of the countries listed below should arrange a residence permit (so called 'VTV') within the first three days of arrival in the Netherlands at the local Alien Police office:
Australia | Austria | Belgium | Canada | Denmark | Finland | France | Germany |
Greece | Iceland | Ireland | Italy | Japan | Luxemburg | Monaco | New Zealand |
Northern Ireland | Norway | Portugal | Spain | Sweden | Switserland (including Liechtenstein) | United Kingdom | USA
All other nationals should apply for a Provisional Residence Permit / Authorization for Temporary Stay (so called 'MVV'). As of 1 July 2002 the application process for provisional residence permits (MVV) has changed: click the Residence Wizard for instructions how to apply.
Completed visa application form: Please wait to sign the form in the presence of the visa officer.
