I have already worked in Netherlands for one year. I got 3 year work permit and resident permit.

I want to ask if I change my job to work for another company.
1. If I work there for another two year, I can get permanent residency in the Netherlands? The counting can be continued or not?
2. Any thing I have to take care of in order to facilitate getting permanent residency when I change my job from one company to anohter one?

Regards,

Harvard

Hi Harvard

Thanks for posting!

After three years of working in the Netherlands (continuously) you can apply for permanent residency. You can change jobs if your new employer is willing to apply for a new work permit for you. Your residence card will stay the same. After three years of residence and working there, you can apply for PR.

Hope this answers your questions!

Best regards

Elfa

Thanks indeed. However, my resident permit stated that the employment only limit to my current employer. I am really not sure if I should change my resident permit which states that the employment limited to the new employer or not.

Dear Sirs,

I want to introduce myself. I got indefinite contract to work in the Netherlands. However when I see the work permit, it is only valid for one year. What is the reason between the mismatch of employment contract and work permit. Any way to appeal the authority to get a three year work permit rather than a one year one.

Regards,

Mike

1. I just got a three year work permit. It states
Deze vergunning is niet voor verlenging vatbaar.
De wekgever staat het vrij t.z.t. een nieuwe aanvraag in te dienen.
Die aanvraag zal echter opnieuw getoetst worden aan de dan geldende en toepasselijke wet – en regelgeving.

What does it mean? Is it a normal work permit that can let me get permance residency after three years?

2. I am in the process to change my employer. Any one can tell me which aspects I have to pay attention to when I change my employer. Particularly in the future when I apply for permanent residency.

Regards,

Mike

As far as we know at the Amsterdam Law faculty, you can apply for a permanent resident permit after five years(new law april 1 2001).
However after three years working with the same company you are free to look for another company without the need for a workpermit and with the new contract your non permanent r.permit will be renewed!
As for the mismatch contract-workpermit:every year(max.3X) you will have to renew the workpermit, they want to check if you are still working at the place, renewal is relatively a quick and simple procedure
