    Residence permit for an indefinite period with EC annotation long term resident You can apply for permanent residence with a note of the EC long-term resident. This note gives you the same rights as a residence permit for an indefinite period. This also gives you the opportunity to record for a period longer than three months in another EU country with the aim to stay as a temporary residence permit time to obtain. For example if you are in another EU Member State to study or work. You must be out in the EU Member State conditions for obtaining the permit requirements. You can use a regular residence permit for an indefinite term note EC long-term residents apply if you meet the following conditions: * You have a residence permit of indefinite duration on national grounds. * You have in the past five years, not six or more consecutive months, or a total of ten or more months, resided outside the Netherlands.

    Basically life in Holland is same as anywhere in developed world. If you have money and, preferably, local friends you are ok, if you don't - life will be misery. If you get welfare misery might be not that hard to take, but I guess this is also same everywhere.

    Hi,
     
    I have just received an offer from a company in Amsterdam, and wanted to find out whether they are low-balling me with the pay, and whether I can afford to live in Amsterdam as I hear that it is quite an expensive place.
     
    The company offers me 4800 EUR monthly net, that is after tax, and I would really appreciate any advise as to whether this is a reasonable amount and whether I would be able to have a normal standard in Amsterdam.
     
    Would much appreciate it!
     
    If you have a possibility try to get mortgage for house or apartment, you will save considerably (you can have a mortgage for 2 bedroom apartment for 750/m). Be careful about conditions, some sellers and banks have restrictions about selling it or renting your property. If you will not bargan for bottom line price you might get good options for selling or renting your property and hence can profit when you move out.
     
    Renting apartments in commercual market in Amsterdam can ruin your budget.

    Your company is breaking the rule by letting you to work in Swissland, on what ground are you working in Swissland or any other CE country ?


    Your company need to check the law


    _____________________________


    Would be great to know what particular law his company is breaking? If possible please quote.

     

    Generally Lisbon treaty clearly established that legal resident of any member state, with an exception of countries who aren't part of Schnengen treaty (UK, Ireland, Bulgaria, Romania), shall have a same rights in any other state in regards of employment, residency and social security as he or she has in the land of residency. It is a matter of tax and social security and labor law, if person wshould register himself in Switserland or keep dutch adress in such cercumstance. 

     

    Additionally,according to the same treaty the EU/Schengen company who is providing services to the client in other Eu/Schengen country can bring own personeel without any additional procedure for a duration which is needed for completing the task. Workers  salalries and social security contributions are handled in the country of permanent residence in such cases, however if duration of acctual stay exceeds one year, the workers might be subject to the income tax at the country where they perform work duty.

     

    There are many chapters of national legal codes of European countries which directly object this provisions of Lisbon treaty which I have mentioned, however in case of any dispute the law shall be interpreted in favor of Lisbon treaty not national legilation according to the directive of Councel of Europe. EU Member states who are part of the treaty are given a time to adjust the national law to the provisions of the treaty.

     

    If national legislation fails to secure provision of teh treaty in the individual cases, the application to the European court can be filed.

     

    It is possible to provide references, however both Lisbon treaty and the amendements and directives are available at europa.eu

As for Euroconnect - nice that your motives are clear and that after several posts, you are using the forum for some free company advertising.

     

    No, just introducing myself.

    I don't offer MY property to sell.

     

    As for the rest of your text; there are no idela solutions in life (not only real estate).

     

    There is a clear choice between paying around 500 Euro for shared room, 1500 euro for private apartment and enjoy the full scale tenant-landlord relationship Amsterdam style, or pay 750 monthly as a mortgage for nicer apartment and face a risk that property might not be sold for desirable price when the time comes. or face a nice surprise that market goes up when time comes.
