Places for fingerprints and residence card pick-up in the Netherlands

Match the place on your IND letter with the right city

Visits are by appointment only, and not every place offers every service. Some serve only people from a certain region, and an appointment booked before your letter arrives can be cancelled. Each place runs its appointments in its own way, so take your passport and your appointment code along.

    IND Haarlem — biometrics by appointment

    Jansweg 15, 2011 KL Haarlem

    Wait for the immigration service’s letter before booking, because an earlier appointment can be cancelled.

    Bring a valid passport or travel document and your appointment code. Bring your previous residence document or W/W2 document if applicable, or the police loss/theft report. For a Netherlands-born child aged two or older, bring the parent’s valid passport or residence document and the child’s passport, birth certificate or municipal BRP (Dutch population register) registration; copies of the last two are accepted. For the photo, avoid completely white or light-grey clothing because the background is light grey. A religious or philosophical head covering may remain on if the face is visible; the IND (Dutch immigration service) recommends plain material in a darker colour without reflective parts.
