From refugees to specialised knowledge migrants: the Immigratie- en Naturalisatiedienst – IND (Immigration and Naturalisation Service) assesses all applications from foreign citizens who live in the Netherlands or want to become Dutch citizens.

Consultation hours 

The IND is available for appointments at Maastricht International Centre for the specific purposes of issuing residence permit cards, stickers, return visas and collecting biometric information. When a residence permit card is ready for collection in Maastricht a letter will be sent by the IND.
