What to expect in the Holland Handbook

Over the years, The Holland Handbook has been expanded to reflect the latest developments in the Netherlands, along with topics that have gained relevance since the book first appeared, adapting to the new generation of foreign nationals, immigrants and students who have come to the Netherlands - either for a few months or for a longer period of time.

The Holland Handbook offers a wealth of information to those who have just moved here - or are preparing for their move here - on issues such as permits, bank accounts, international schools, universities, job-searching, employment law, the BSN number, finding a place to live and insurance.

Not only does the book cover the first steps you will be taking towards starting a life in the Netherlands - it also prepares you for what comes next, such as learning the language, getting to know your Dutch neighbours and celebrating life’s milestones and holidays the Dutch way.

The Holland Handbook also covers practical things such as the healthcare system, the education system - ranging from pre-kindergarten to obtaining a PhD - public transportation, legal problems, things to do in your free time, importing your car, having a baby, and so much more!
