Netherlands visa processing times

This page will show typical processing times for Netherlands’s national long-stay (Type D) visas. Processing times are set by Netherlands’s authorities and change frequently, so we do not publish figures until they are verified against official sources — please check the official EU visa-policy links below and Netherlands’s embassy or consulate for current times.
