Step 2: Residence Permit Requirement (if staying >3 months)

- If you’re staying more than 3 months (expats, digital nomads, Erasmus students), you need a residence permit card 🛂.
- To get this, you usually need a notarized rental contract.

Step 3: Work Arrivals

- If you are coming for work 💼, you may already have enough documents from your employer.
- In that case, a notarized contract might not be required, but check with your workplace or call the immigration service.
- Immigration service provides support in multiple languages 🌐.
