The Dutch government financially supports project like these ⬇️

✅ Your project must involve technical innovation, such as developing new software, products, or production processes.

✅ You must be solving real technical challenges, not simply using existing solutions.

✅ You need a clear development plan outlining your technical challenges, proposed solutions, and estimated R&D hours.

✅ You must carry out the qualifying R&D yourself or through your employees.

And yes, ZZP’ers can qualify too, but specific working-hour requirements apply.

On our UnitCity podcast (link in bio 🎥), we talked with many founders who moved across different countries searching for THE ONE.

The US, Canada, Germany, England - the list goes on and on. So let’s take a look at the 3 most popular choices in Europe and their respective immigration options for entrepreneurs.

You have a business in the Netherlands, or you plan to open one. But that doesn’t automatically guarantee that you can apply for a residence permit based on your business.

If you’re a non-EU entrepreneur, these are some of the main routes to consider:

1. Start-up Residence Permit 🚀

The Dutch Start-up Residence Permit allows founders to live in the Netherlands while developing an innovative company.

You generally need:

→ an innovative product, service, or business model
→ cooperation with an approved facilitator
→ a concrete plan for developing the business

The permit is valid for 1 year. After that, you can potentially switch to the Self-Employed Residence Permit.

2. Self-Employed Residence Permit 💼

Already have a functioning business?

For most applicants, RVO assesses whether your business has sufficient value for the Dutch economy. Your experience, business plan, and added value are taken into account. You also need to meet requirements, including KVK registration and sufficient income.

3. DAFT / Dutch-Japanese Treaty 🇺🇸🇯🇵

US and Japanese entrepreneurs have a special route under the Dutch-American Friendship Treaty or Dutch-Japanese Trade Treaty.

Instead of going through the standard RVO assessment in the same way, qualifying entrepreneurs can rely on treaty rules. For most business structures, IND currently requires at least €4,500 of capital invested in the business.

4. Orientation Year 🎓

Recently graduated or completed qualifying research?

During the Dutch Orientation Year, you can freely work as an entrepreneur, freelancer, or self-employed professional. That means you can use the year to actually build your business and later switch to a Start-up or Self-Employed Residence Permit if you qualify.

🇳🇱 WARNING to all ZZP’ers:

Since 1 October 2026, the government opened consultation on a new Zelfstandigenwet, intended to create clearer rules for deciding who genuinely qualifies as self-employed.

The proposed law would introduce two main tests for ZZP’ers. And here is what the government says about these tests:

“The self-employed test mainly looks at the entrepreneur himself. For example, a self-employed person must have the basis in order, such as invoicing himself and registering with the Chamber of Commerce (KVK). The number of clients counts. And whether an independent has made provisions against entrepreneurial risks.

The working relationship test ensures that there is sufficient independent work within a specific employment relationship.

Anyone who meets these 2 tests and works in this way in practice will end up in ‘a safe haven’.”

The tests have not yet appeared in the system, but here is what they will mean in practice:

👉 First, actual checks on your KVK registration, invoices, clients (has to be more than 3), financial details and separate bank account.
👉 Second, whether you are independent at work. Do you decide how the work is performed? Do you negotiate your own rates? Do you carry financial risk if a project takes longer or costs more than expected? Or does the client manage you like an employee?

If you work as a ZZP’er in the Netherlands, now is a good time to check whether your contracts, client structure and actual way of working clearly demonstrate your independence. The Zelfstandigenwet is still a proposal, so the exact rules may still be adjusted.

At .nl, we help entrepreneurs understand their business structure, immigration position and compliance risks in the Netherlands.

Not sure whether your ZZP setup is safe?
