Staff Immigration Office
Support for international staff
Are you moving to the Netherlands to work at the UvA? The Staff Immigration Office is here to support you. Our first task is to help arrange all the paperwork, from residence permits to insurance and registration. We also provide information on living in Amsterdam and the Netherlands.
Please note: the Staff Immigration Office services all faculties except the Faculty of Science. Coming to work for the Faculty of Science? See the information at the bottom of this page.
Intake interview
As soon as you arrive in the Netherlands, we'll arrange an intake interview. During the intake, we can help you register with your local municipality, open a bank account and arrange health insurance.
Any questions?
If you're new to the Netherlands, you probably have a lot of questions ranging from finding affordable housing to choosing the right school for your children. Feel free to ask questions during the intake interview or contact us by phone or email.
