In recent years, a significant number of embassies and consulates have shrunk or closed due to budget cuts. As a result, many Dutch citizens have to travel thousands of kilometers for consular services such as passport applications or renewals.
Watch the webinar "Consular Affairs for Dutch Citizens Abroad" here , which took place on April 14, 2022. We at SNBN are very grateful to the Consular Affairs department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Their explanation of what they do and mean for Dutch citizens abroad, and what their plans and wishes are for the future, was very clear. The webinar presentation can also be downloaded here :
