Do Foreign bachelors degrees apply?

Hi Martha and welcome to the Forum.

At the top of this page is a link to our "Discover" section, if you select that, you'll get access to our "The Netherlands Guide", which contains articles written to help you plan your journey.

Business Administration is not regulated in Holland and is what I would call a vanilla degree, so is worth whatever value a potential employer thinks it's worth.  The Dutch Government have an organisation that compares foreign qualifications to their Dutch equivalent; this link will take you to the Kenyan section of that website.  It will give you an idea of what educational achievement to claim when dealing with agencies and potential employers.

Should you be lucky enough to qualify as a "skilled migrant", then you may not have to go through the MVV process, which involves you learning Dutch and passing an exam before they will issue you with a Residence/Work permit.  It follows that should you not qualify as a skilled migrant, then you will have to go through the MVV process and our guide should help you through that.

Once you have read our guide and checked out the links therein, if you have any further specific questions, please come back to us.

Hope this helps.
