To be eligible for the Highly Skilled Migrant Visa (2026), individuals must meet specific gross monthly income criteria: €5,331 for those 30 years or older, €3,909 for those under 30, and €2,801 for those who graduated from a Dutch university. Salary expectations for other visa categories depend on the position and the employer. The Dutch government revises these amounts each year to reflect current economic realities. Meeting the base pay is needed to get a visa.
