Transport for Expats in The Netherlands
Transport
Conditions apply to foreigners driving in the Netherlands, otherwise there’s an excellent public transport system.
- To drive in the Netherlands you must have a valid licence recognised by Dutch law, and have third party insurance.
- All cars must be registered with the RDW (Rijksdienst voor het Wegverkeer). If you bring your vehicle from abroad, it must first be reviewed at an RDW inspection station, after which registration plates are handled through the same office.
- Traffic is an issue and so is parking, for which you generally need a permit.
