The Expat Centers help internationals to get settled smoothly and feel at home in Holland
You’re here! You’ve arrived! You’re working for a new company, or you have a slew of new responsibilities at your current company. You live in a new city and you’re sending your kids to a new school. You shop at a new supermarket (Don’t forget the hagelslag!), you hang out with new friends after work, and your weekends are spent exploring this new country you now call home. In short: a new adventure. But the bigger the adventure or the opportunity, the more attention to detail is often required. The Expat Centers in Holland are here to help with all of the little things so you can focus on - and enjoy - the bigger things, like truly feeling at home in the Netherlands.
Unique one-stop-shop service
Whether you have just moved yourself or your entire family to the Netherlands, Invest in Holland understands that it is the individual employees who help make companies locating in Holland successful and wants to make this transition as easy as possible. The country’s dedicated Expat Centers network is a unique concept that helps international employees, researchers, start-ups and orientation year students with the formalities for relocating, to get them settled smoothly here.
A total of eleven official Expat Centers span the country in Amsterdam, Eindhoven, Terneuzen, Maastricht, Groningen, Hengelo, Rotterdam, The Hague, Leiden, Utrecht and Wageningen. Each of these welcome centers functions as a ‘one-stop-shop’ for internationals, all offering advice and support on a wide range of topics, from housing and education, to health, permits and personal needs. In addition, they organize regular events - informative, recreational, or cultural – to keep the international community connected.
The main goal is to make you feel at home from the moment you arrive. Any move, let alone an international one, can be stressful. With the help of an Expat Center, it will be less so!
