BSN (Burgerservicenummer)

For long-term business stays, you will need to apply for a BSN (Burgerservicenummer). This is a unique citizen service number that is required for working, paying taxes, and receiving healthcare in the Netherlands.

You can get a BSN after registering at the local municipality once you’ve arrived in the Netherlands. For more information on the BSN, visit the Dutch Government’s page on BSN.
