As a foreign professional you can arrange for your car before or after you move to the Netherlands. We are able to provide vehicles throughout the country. Choose between a variety of new makes and models.
With the “Personal Car Shopper Service”, we will search for your vehicle according to your wishes, needs and budget. Our Netherlands partners will locate and negotiate pricing on your behalf. Our partner can, in most cases, get better pricing because of arrangements made with vehicle manufacturers to offer discounts & leasing options to expatriates.
The following documents are required to apply:
A Dutch, EU or International driving license is acceptable unless the driver holds non-EU citizenship and has been resident in the Netherlands for more than 180 days. In this case he must be in possession of a valid Dutch driving license.
To exchange your existing national driving license for a Dutch one, you must fit into one of several categories. If you do not, you can use your existing license for six months (185 days) after becoming a resident, during which time you need to take the CBR theory and driving tests. You can take both the theory and practical exam in English.

Monthly payments are made by direct payments from bank to bank
For your convenience, comprehensive insurance is included in the agreement. The all-risk insurance covers all damage that is made to your vehicle and other parties in traffic. In case of non-refundable damage you will have to pay €300,- own risk per damage. A passenger insurance can be added for €2,- per month. Also, maintenance, service, and repairs and a replacement vehicle after 72 hours are included. Tires in case of wear.
Your Personal Car Shopper will assist you with car registration.
After the registration has been completed, it is time for car delivery. The expected delivery time is 1-3 weeks for cars in stock and 3-4 months for a custom order. In many cases, you could pick up the car at a local dealership or it may be delivered to your home.

If the company pays for the car, the Corporate Billed Lease is the simpler route: the employee still chooses the car with a Personal Car Shopper, but the lease is approved on the financial standing of the employer, not on the employee’s credit history in the Netherlands, and one invoice goes to the company, the RMC or the Employer of Record. No local entity is needed, which is why a growing number of EOR hires in the Netherlands are set up this way. The Netherlands is one of the 67 countries where the program runs. Details and the request form are on the Corporate Billed Car Leasing page; the assignee can forward this guide to HR with that link.
