Many high skilled expats are currently working through this permit which offers a combination of a residence and work permit. There are some requirements you must meet before you qualify, including:
– Skills and expertise that are moderately scarce in the EU
– A high level of education (at least a bachelor’s degree)
– Previous work experience
– Sponsorship by a company that holds a sponsorship status with the IND office
– Comply with the Salary requirement
– TB test and MVV (non-tourist, entrance visa) is mandatory for some countries
If you come over with a spouse, they will also have a highly skilled migrant visa so they can work in the Netherlands without further sponsorship.
