Rent in the Netherlands

Or have you received a letter telling you to leave your home? These are all questions governed by the lease agreement and by law.

Living in the Netherlands
Do you decide to live in the Netherlands as a foreigner? Then all sorts of things need to be arranged. On this site of the Central government read what you need to arrange when you come to live in the Netherlands. Upon your departure from abroad, you must deregister from the municipality where you live. Then register with the municipality where you will live.
