Nederlands in den Vreemde is a historical term and loosely translates as the Dutch in Foreign Parts. We are there for anyone who lives abroad (outside of the Netherlands) or has a relationship/link between the Netherlands and other countries. Work, living, vacations, familie, etc. And of course also for those returning/moving to the Netherlands.

(in Dutch only)

Amongst others we give specialist advice to Dutch citizens, former Dutch citizens, lawyers and politicians with respect to the Dutch nationality laws. We support a human and morally just policy where nationality isn’t taken away automatically, lost automatically without the person’s intent or realisation. If you ever had to deal with the old Dutch nationality law (Wet op het Nederlanderschap en het ingezetenschap, WNI) or current law (Rijkswet op het Nederlanderschap, RWN), or want to know more about potential future changes to the nationality law, we are here for you.

Running a website costs time and money. If you can help with skills and time, or with financial support this would be appreciated. We thank you!
