Requirements for nonEEA with 5yr RC to live in Amsterdam

Post by naija99 » Sun Dec 16, 2012 11:08 am

Please can someone confirm what the requirements are for a non EEA nat husband (Pakistani) with a 5yr RC to move to Amsterdam to live with his Dutch wife.

He obtained his RC by virtue of his wife being self employed here in the UK but they wish to live in Amsterdam for a better life. What are the requirements please and does he have to take a test?

"Surinder Singh" case would be relevant to your question.

Oh I see. Thank you for that.
So is there a test that the non Eea member would have to take?

The EU citizen will need to have worked in the UK. See http://eumovement.wordpress.com/2011/12 ... -a-worker/ for details of what working is.
