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.

    Highly skilled migrants, researchers and their families book online, and you do not need a Rotterdam address.

    Bring a valid passport or travel document, appointment confirmation, and any current or expired Dutch residence document. Bring a police report if the document was lost or stolen. IND (Dutch immigration service) normally takes the photo itself. For children under two, IND uses a separate photo form instead of a biometrics appointment; follow the child-specific instructions.
