In close cooperation with our Immigration team, we make sure that all documents that are required to bring along to the appointments are clearly communicated in time. We schedule the appointments guaranteeing the most efficient timing, and can accompany if appreciated in order to translate and support where necessary. The appointments will also be included in the schedule overview on our Interactive Relocation Platform & App.

In the Netherlands, registration is legally required within 5 days after arrival and is possible from the start date of the lease contract or by presenting an alternative document stating that registration at a temporary address is allowed. After the registration, the municipality will hand out the Dutch social security number, called BSN number. This number is essential for many official arrangements, such as payroll.

Of course, these services can be offered separately as well. We can arrange for the registration appointment, as well as the appointment to open a bank account, whenever suits best in our clients’ schedules. In our experience, however, most of our clients appreciate an efficient combination of these two essentials that need to be arranged immediately after arrival.

In Belgium, registration is legally required within 8 days after arrival and is possible from the start date of the lease contract or by presenting an alternative document stating that registration at a temporary address is allowed. After the registration, the municipality will issue a national registry number, which proves you are inscribed in the registry of aliens. This number is essential for many official arrangements such as payroll.

In Luxembourg, registration is legally required within 3 days after arrival and is possible from the start date of the lease contract or by presenting an alternative document stating that registration at a temporary address is allowed. Just like in Belgium, the municipality will issue a national registry number after the registration
