good day! I am Canadian and i wish to establish myself in Netherlands. I am quite confused with regards to the working permit/residency thing. (i've checked out the government websites and all but information is not that clear). Some further insight will be greatly appreciated. thank you very much for your time and patience

Hey,

Guess it depends on what you want to do over here, if its just a couple of months probably best to get a work permit if your staying a while and don't have an EU passport you'll probably need an employer to sponsor you.
