Insurance Essentials for Expats in the Netherlands
All residents of the Netherlands are legally required to have Dutch health insurance (zorgverzekering). As an expat, you must arrange this within four months of registering at your local municipality. Beyond health insurance, there are several other types of coverage that are important for expats to consider.
Types of Insurance for Expats
Health insurance in the Netherlands consists of a basic package (basispakket) that is the same across all insurers, plus optional supplementary coverage. Liability insurance (aansprakelijkheidsverzekering) is not mandatory but is considered essential by most Dutch residents and typically costs just a few euros per month. Home contents insurance (inboedelverzekering) and building insurance (opstalverzekering) protect your possessions and property. If you are buying a home, your mortgage lender will require at minimum a building insurance policy.
