Family routes vary by the sponsor’s nationality, permit and relationship. The IND assesses eligibility; this guide only structures the questions to ask.

EU family rights are a separate route
A non-EU family member joining an EU/EEA/Swiss citizen can have a route based on EU law. Do not substitute the ordinary partner-permit checklist without checking the IND route.
Children need their own documents
Bring each child’s valid identity document and relevant birth or custody documents. The municipality and IND can ask for original, legalised or translated records.
Preguntas frecuentes
Does every partner need the same permit?
No. The sponsor’s nationality, residence status and relationship determine the route. Check the IND page that matches the family situation.
Can family members register together?
Family members moving to live in the Netherlands generally register with the municipality in person. Ask the municipality about appointments and documents.
When is healthcare arranged?
Check each person’s insurance responsibility after arrival. Residence status, work and study can change the answer.
