Some 4,000 British nationals officially registered as living in the Netherlands have not yet come forward to sort out their post -Brexit residency status, the Dutch immigration service IND has told DutchNews.nl. British nationals have June 30 to apply for a residency permit, if they want to continue living legally in the Netherlands, the IND said. The IND has written to British nationals several times, urging them to sort out their paperwork and the British ambassador to the Netherlands has also appealed to British nationals to comply. British nationals who don’t have the proper papers by July 1 will have to leave the Netherlands, lose their right to benefits and will no longer be allowed to work here, Sieperda said.
