  3. Passed the civic integration exam (or exemption).
  4. Stable and sufficient income.
  5. No criminal record or serious offenses.

📄 Required Documents:

  • Passport or ID
  • Current residence permit
  • Civic integration certificate
  • Payslips or income proof
  • Rental contract or housing confirmation

📝 How to Apply:

Applications are made through the IND (Immigration and Naturalisation Service). You can apply online or make an appointment at a local IND office.

💶 Cost:

The fee for applying is around €210 (subject to updates).

📌 Note:

After 5 years, if you meet all the requirements, you can also apply for Dutch citizenship through naturalization.
