- MVV Visa Requirements
As of 15 March 2006, almost all aliens seeking to settle in the Netherlands who need an authorisation for temporary stay (MVV) to enter the country will have to take an integration
test before applying for a MVV visa.
- What is the civic integration examination?
It is a test that an applicant must take at the
Dutch embassy or consulate in his/her country of
residence before applying for a MVV visa. People
applying for an MVV must first prove that they
have passed the examination. You need an MVV to
apply for a residence permit - which is
necessary for a stay of over three months in the
Netherlands. The civic integration examination
is a test given in the Dutch language.
-
- Candidates will
be tested on their knowledge of Dutch society
and their command of the Dutch language. Anyone
who prepares properly should be able to pass the
examination.
