Most of you are probably planning a visit to the Netherlands sooner or later. Some of you come here to work, others to study, and a few of you probably have a partner in the Netherlands. 

Moving to another country involves a lot of organising, even for those who strictly adhere to the go-with-the-flow principle. Before you move to the Netherlands, you might want to know something about the (lack of)  housing situation, the  the [[17|job market]], the [[15|taxes]] you have to pay, and so on.

Here, you will find information about [[18|study]] and [[17|work]] in the Netherlands, [[04|residence permits]] and naturalization, how to find [[02|housing]] in the Netherlands, the Dutch [[10|social security]] system, what [[15|taxes]] you have to pay, and much more. 

For those enthousiasts who learn Dutch solely for the purpose to communicate in Dutch on their trip to the Netherlands, there is a section about [[19|travelling and lodging]].
