The Dutch government has updated the required income amounts needed for family reunification applications in the Netherlands.

Key Points:

  • From July 1 to Jan. 1, 2023, the minimum income needed to bring a spouse or partner to the Netherlands is:
    • €1,756.20 per month without holiday allowance (increased from €1,725.00).
    • €1,896.70 per month with holiday allowance (increased from €1,837.08).
  • From July 1 to Jan. 1, 2023, the minimum income needed as a single individual is:
    • €1,229.34 per month without holiday allowance (increased from €1,190.70).
    • €1,327.69 per month with holiday allowance (increased from €1,285.96).

Additional Information: The family reunification income thresholds are updated every six months. More information on income requirements for specific applications can be found here.

BAL Analysis: The new thresholds only apply to family reunification applications. Amounts for those who bring dependents under employment-based applications will remain unaffected by the new standard income thresholds.
