NETHERLANDS: Right to Search Period Extended to EU Blue Card Holders
May 2, 2018
Effective 1st April 2018, EU Blue Card holders in the Netherlands whose employment is terminated for any reason are entitled to a “search period” of up to three months to find a new job as long as their residence permit card is still valid.
This is in line with the three-month search period already available to highly skilled migrants in the same circumstances.
Our Advice
EU Blue Card holders whose employment is terminated should be aware of the search period.
