Frequently asked questions
What is an IND recognised sponsor?
A company or organisation approved by the Dutch Immigration and Naturalisation Service (IND) to hire international talent under schemes like the Highly Skilled Migrant programme. Only recognised sponsors can submit those residence permit applications on your behalf.
Do I need a recognised sponsor to work in the Netherlands?
For the Highly Skilled Migrant route, yes — your employer must be on the IND's public register of recognised sponsors. Other routes, such as the orientation year for graduates or self-employment, have different requirements.
How do I find companies that can sponsor my Dutch work visa?
The IND publishes an official register of recognised sponsors. IND Sponsors Netherlands makes that register searchable — 12,000+ companies you can filter, save, and track.
I have a job offer — what happens next?
Your employer starts the residence permit application, and you handle the move itself: municipality registration (BSN), a Dutch bank account, health insurance and housing. Relocate Quest gives you a step-by-step flow for exactly this part.
