About the Netherlands visa
Netherlands: schengen visitor visa, mvv student and highly skilled migrant routes. Government fee and the guaranteed decision window are confirmed before you pay.
Netherlands issues a sticker visa: the application is filed online or on paper, you attend a short biometrics appointment at a visa application centre, and your passport is held until the visa is printed and returned. vistolane handles the filing and passport custody so the process is done from home.

The published processing time is 15 days. vistolane commits to a decision date before you pay and shows the 15-day window on the price card above.
Validity and stay. A Netherlands sticker visa is valid for 90 days and allows a stay of 90 days in any 180 on a multiple-entry basis. Routes covered on this page: Schengen C, Student MVV, Highly Skilled Migrant.
