Hello, I'm new on the forum. My husband (he has Dutch citizenship) and I are considering immigrating to the Netherlands. We've been married for 15 years. Is it possible for me to obtain citizenship? And can I do this without giving up SA citizenship? Would appreciate your advice.

Hi and welcome to the Forum.
The "Option" route may be more suitable; this link to the IND website will take you to the process.
You also ask "can I do this without giving up SA citizenship?"; the Dutch Government website provides information on this; this link will take you there.
Hope this helps.
