Work Permit – TWVÂ
The application for TWV is submitted by the employer who wants to employ a foreign national at his company or form. To TXV, the employer places the application at the UWV (Employment Agency) by ensuring that he has first sought the employee for the said vacant position in the Netherlands and other European countries before hiring a non-EU national. However, no work permit is required if the host university offers the students an internship position or employs them off-campus in the internship program related to their education.
