Work Visa for international students/graduates

To get a one-year visa, students who finish their bachelor's or master's at a Dutch university can apply for an "Orientation Year" visa. As of March 1, 2016, new rules say that students can apply for this permit for three years after finishing their degree. 

This residence permit is non-extendable and valid for one year only. However, if you enrol in another course, the validity of this residence permit is renewed.
