Yes, you can apply for permanent residency in the Netherlands after completing your studies, provided you meet specific requirements. You must hold a non-temporary residence permit for at least five consecutive years, such as a work visa after graduating. During this period, you should not have committed any crimes and must pass the civic integration exam.
Additionally, you need a valid passport, proof of stable income, and compliance with Dutch immigration policies. Switching from a student permit to a work visa is often necessary before qualifying for permanent residency. Consult the IND (Dutch Immigration Service) for precise guidelines.
