The Netherlands is one of the most beautiful and modern countries in the world. With a strong and stable economy, the country is currently facing a significant shortage of skilled professionals, particularly in the fields of engineering, healthcare, medical, and paramedical services.
Among all available migration routes, the employment-based residence permit offers one of the most secure and rewarding pathways. It allows you to enter the Netherlands with a signed employment contract, along with your family members, from day one—with full legal status, a monthly salary, and access to essential services. Your spouse will receive an open work permit, and your children under 18 will have access to free, high-quality education in one of the world’s most advanced school systems, including full health insurance coverage.
Additionally, under the current Dutch regulations, if you hold a valid Iranian driver’s license, you can convert it to a Dutch permanent driving license without any examination, as long as you enter the Netherlands through a work-based residence route. This benefit does not apply to other visa types, such as student or family reunion visas, which require time-consuming and costly driving tests from scratch.
Your spouse—regardless of gender—will also be eligible to study in Dutch universities at the same tuition rate as Dutch citizens, which is significantly lower than international tuition fees. Without a residence permit based on employment, international students often pay more than €22,000 per year for a Master’s degree programme.
After only five consecutive years of legal residence, you and your family become eligible to apply for Dutch and EU citizenship, obtaining a Dutch passport and all related rights.
If you are looking for a better income in a stable economy, even through a modest job, and want to live in a country that offers freedom, security, opportunity, and a high quality of life, the Dutch employment route is ideal. A moderate level of English is sufficient for daily life and work in most sectors.
