“Only a small group that has involuntarily lost Dutch citizenship can benefit from this”

Dutch and Australian passport - Nederlandse en Asutralische paspoort

After a successful webinar with members of Parliament about dual citizenship at the end of last year, and the Minister of Justice's announcement that there would be a legislative amendment on this subject, Stichting Nederlanders Buiten Nederland (SNBN) had high expectations. But the proposed changes are a disappointment, according to Eelco Keij from SNBN.


At the moment, the bill is in the so-called “consultation phase”. This means that everyone can say what they think about it, until May 15.

More information about how you can support SNBN can be foundhere.
