SCIS for international staff
Making the choice to move to a new country can be a huge step in your career, a wonderful opportunity to work and collaborate with peers at the other side of the world or in a neighboring country. At Leiden University we understand that apart from the excitement of being able to do the research of your choice, moving to and settling in a new country can also feel like quite a challenge at the same time. Therefore we have a specialized team at SCIS who will be your guide throughout the whole process of your move to and stay in the Netherlands. Our SCIS officers will contact you before you move to the Netherlands and after your arrival you are welcome to stop by at our office during our open office hours between 8.30-12.30 on weekdays. If you prefer you can also schedule an appointment with us in the afternoon.
SCIS will lend you a helping hand in:
- visas and permits
- taxes
- health insurance
- housing
- other immigration requirements
