Legal Services
in Amsterdam
The capital of the Netherlands. IND, BSN, gemeente, work, BV.
Amsterdam is the center of the Ukrainian community in the Netherlands. Registering with the gemeente, obtaining a BSN, extending temporary protection status through the IND, housing and employment issues — everything has its Amsterdam specifics and its own queues.
Zahist in Amsterdam supports clients in the Dutch and Ukrainian jurisdictions — with one team.
