Renting a property from an institutional landlord is not a practical choice for new immigrants to the Netherlands. Here's why.

Compared to Americans who emigrate for love, school, or work, Americans who come on the Dutch-American Friendship Treaty (DAFT) residence permit can face unique challenges when it comes to integration into Dutch society.

Life on DAFT can feel like standing on the outside looking in at a culture with great work-life balance. You can see the benefits of work-life balance in action, but they don't apply to you.

In the Netherlands, carrying valid identification is compulsory for everyone aged 14 and older.
