One Dutch-language diploma (NT2 II) permanently unlocks Dutch universities and skilled jobs
Passing the Staatsexamen NT2 Programma II (B2 level) is the officially recognised proof of Dutch that hbo/university programmes and professional employers accept - and the diploma never expires. Register with DUO, prepare (self-study or a course), and sit the four parts: reading, writing, listening, speaking. You do not have to do Programma I (B1) first. Check DUO for the current per-part fee; you must pass all four parts.
Get the rest of it, in your own language.
MAS reads your IND letter, checks whether an employer can legally sponsor you, and finds work that will actually take you. Free, no account.
