Hello! First of your blog is super helpful. I had a query on the legalization process. I have spent time in Netherlands and have been through the process of legalization of my birth certificate in 2011. I know have a possible opportunity to relocate and wanted to know if I need to go through the legalization process for my birth certificate again.
Thanks for your help!
No. Do not have to legalize again. You can reuse the old legalized BC.
i recently got dutch citizenship and would like to know whether i need to declare assets and pay tax as well for assets in india while filing income tax return in NL
Just declaring an asset is sufficient.?
please clarify.
If you still have 30% ruling then not required to declare. But otherwise you need to. I suggest the first time you approach a tax consultant.

No idea. Ask your employer for calc comparison and then decide!
Hi,
My husband has got a job offer in Den Bosch. But we are worried about schooling of our daughters who are 8 years and 4 years. As per our findings the nearest international school is in Eindhoven. Can someone please advise if it is possible for the school kids to travel to Eindhoven from Den Bosch on a daily basis? Also, as per our search the school probably does not have any school bus. Will it still be doable for kids to travel to school far away on public transport?
Can there be any alternative of staying in the mid way so that it becomes easier for kids to travel?
I am asking so that anyone living in that area can provide possible solutions or suggestions.
Thanks in advance for your information.
It is not allowed for kids that small to travel by themselves. So stay in Eindhoven and ask your husband to travel
Hi Madhu,
First of all I thank you for such a crystal clear blog !! very effective.
I recently got an offer in Holland (not an internal transfer, completely a new company). My employer has started the procedure for legalization of docs by himself after which he is about to trigger the resident permit application. They have asked me to submit only my 1. Btech.degree 2. Passport 3. Mark sheet of my btech.degree for legalization in Netherlands.
I came across that many people speak about the legalization of 1. “Birth certificate” 2. “Marriage Certificate”. Kindly note that am not married yet. So my question is, whether legalizing “diploma certificate ” alone is enough for me ? or should i get my “birth certificate and unmarried certificate” legalized too ?? in this case should i intimate my employer on this ?? Kindly help me , Thanks.
Legalize Only BC

Hi Madhu,
I would be applying for ICT visa to netherlands soon. Need help in queries below.
1. Is any other document that need apostille and legalisation apart from marriage and birth certificate?
2. Do I need to apostille education degrees? Even if they are in english?
3. Do we need to submit original degrees for visa stamping?
4. Can i apply for netherlands work visa while i am in uk (on tier 2 ICT) or I need to apply from India only?
Your answers would certainly help.
4. Yes I think you can apply when still in UK
Other questions are redundant.
Hi Guys,
How to get a Apostille for my Birth Certificate (Kerala) in the Netherlands ?
Is it possible to get it done remotely from Netherlands or is there an organisation that does it ?
Best regards,
Nikhil Nair
Apostille should be done in India. Try VFS or a travel agent in India.
