Netherlands Visa Information

Tourist Entry Choices & Visa Rules for Visiting the Netherlands

The Netherlands, known for its canals, tulip fields, museums, and charming cities, follows Schengen Area rules for tourist travel. Many nationalities can visit visa-free for up to 90 days within a 180-day period, making short tourism trips simple and flexible.

Travelers who require authorization must apply for a Schengen Tourist Visa (Type C) before arrival. This visa allows short stays for leisure, sightseeing, and visiting friends or family. Common requirements include a valid passport, travel insurance, accommodation details, proof of financial means, and a confirmed return or onward ticket.
