How to Apply:
You apply for the orientation visa to the Immigration and Naturalisation Service (IND). If you have completed your education abroad, are still living there, and want to apply for the orientation year visa, you may require a provisional residence permit or mvv (this does not apply if you are, for instance, an EU citizen.
