Partner contribution: Visit Europe's first virtual Expat fair 19/03/2008 00:00
On 24 April 2008, the "First Virtual Expat Fair" is going to take place.
Where? Well, in your own home! With “virtual”, we mean live on the internet, so attending a fair was never easier! Still, it looks like you are attending a “real life” fair with the possibility to visit booths, chat with stand representatives and other attendants, have a live job interview, get relevant information and documentation, and visit live seminars!
The goal of the First Virtual Expat Fair is to bring together expats (or those planning on) living in the Netherlands and organisations that are active in the expat business. You will be able to apply for your perfect multilingual job (Dutch not required!), handle all your banking matters, subscribe for a Dutch Virtual Classroom, become a member of the expat community, find yourself a nice apartment, and much more!
Among the companies present at the fair are:
• Expatica
• Undutchables Recruitment Agency
Visiting the First Virtual Expat Fair is free: all you have to do is sign up beforehand. If you bring along five friends you have the chance of winning an Amazon voucher!
Join us during this exciting new event and sign up now!

- My husband and i will be transferring to NL from USA soon. We will not be coming as Expats (in the short term senses) but as permanent transfers (we are both US and Irish citizens) Will we have trouble with tax in both US and NL? Hello Sue, Generally speaking, countries levy tax on a world wide income basis if you are considered resident in the country. The same goes for the Netherlands. The US is one of the few countries in the world where world wide income taxation is based on nationality. So even if you are, under the NL-US tax treaty, considered resident in NL, the US still requires you to file taxes. This is not as bad as it may seem though: - there is a foreign income exclusion appplicable in the US; - the US will credit for NL income taxes paid. If you qualify for the 30% ruling, there are a few tax aspects that make (financial ) life in NL even more comfortable; the only thing is that you have your administrative obligations to fullfill in the two countries.
