Questions
What is an IND recognised sponsor?
A company or institution the Dutch IND has approved to sponsor residence permits. Recognition is required to hire highly skilled migrants (kennismigranten) and is optional but faster for several other routes.
How many recognised sponsors are there in the Netherlands?
13,364 organisations are currently on the IND public register. This page is refreshed from that register.
How do I check if a company is a recognised sponsor?
Search the company name from the full list. Each sponsor page shows the sponsor type (work, study, research or exchange): the KvK number, and when it appeared on or left the register.
Can a company that is not a recognised sponsor hire me?
For the highly skilled migrant route, no. For other routes (for example EU Blue Card or intra-corporate transfer) a non-recognised employer may still apply, with a longer procedure.
