Each company has its own rules when it comes to insurance. Most Dutch companies dont pay anything. Most Indian IT companies (Infosys likes) pay basic (mandatory) insurance.

Thank you for the excellent blog and relentless efforts in keeping it going for so many years !
Q: I got an offer from a company near Eindhoven who are saying, I pay for the Basic Insurance (this is estimated at EUR 350 / month for Family of 3) and they will only Share 50% of cost for Additional / Topup Insurance (like dental, optical etc.). Is this the norm among corporates /businesses in NL? Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome from readers as well.

Thank you
SMG

Slabs are available. Ask your insurance company. Insurance company CZ.nl has related info in English.

Really appreciate your tremendous effort to help people like us though this blog!

Having a query: Is this “basic medical insurance” covers all kinds of illness including surgeries (if required) ? (I know except to dental and physiotherapy) or are there any slabs present in medical insurance scheme/coverage/terms? if yes what all slabs/policy other then basic one can opt for ?

Thanks in advance,

Hi Abhijeet, housing: you will need to search with help of agents. Housing is always difficult like in most cities. School: Is good, anyway you do not have much choice! Train: yes there is. For further details, please refer my blog on Public Transport.

This is a very informative place you have created.

I have my office in Den bosh and would be joining end Novemeber with my family of 2 kids – 10 yr girl and 5 yr boy.

I am prefering Eindhoven as a place of stay. Can you guide me with some good apartments ( 2 BHK) in eindhoven. Hows the Eindhoven international school for the kids.

Is there any direct train from Eindhoven to den bosh and whats the likely travel time?

Your support is highly appreciated.

In Nov – travelling is not a problem. Beyond that you need to watch out for snow. It can snow anytime between Dec and Feb. When it is lot of snow, travel becomes a problem. Otherwise, it is normal travel. On average you can consider about 7 days of disruption in these 3 months. In Swiss the mountains, cities and some attractions will remain open. Waterfalls, lake boating etc will close. You need to pick activities that are related to snow! For medical conditions, you cannot go to a specialist yourself (pls go thru my article on medical system). Pediatricians are available round the clock in hospitals, but they will see their patients only when it is really needed and is referred by the doctors below. Note that it is also possible that due to better air quality here, your child’s wheezing is gone inspite of the cold weather!! This has happened to many including my father-in-law!!
Your key to get out of home is proper warm clothing – if you get this right, I’m sure you will enjoy your time here!
