What is the DAFT Visa?
The Dutch American Friendship Treaty (DAFT) offers U.S. citizens a streamlined path to Dutch residence through entrepreneurial activity. No job offer required. No large-scale investment needed. Simply start your small business and establish residency legally in the Netherlands with privileged treaty status.
Unlike many other European residence options, DAFT is widely regarded as one of the most accessible pathways for American entrepreneurs seeking to live and work in the Netherlands.
Why Even the Savviest Americans Face Challenges Relocating to the Netherlands
At Relocate with Lux, we’ve been there. That’s why we’ve created a one stop solution to handle it all for you – so you can focus on starting your new life stress-free.
Visa Confusion & Costly Delays
Even experienced professionals get tripped up by Dutch immigration procedures. One missing document or mistimed step can cause months of delays or, worse, a denied application.
Outdated or Misinformation Overload
Every expat forum has different advice. Well meaning friends, conflicting articles, and outdated checklists create a fog of confusion when you need clarity most.
The Housing Challenges You Don’t Expect
The best homes are rarely listed online and vanish before you even get a viewing. Without trusted local connections, you're left competing for overpriced, second-tier listings.
The Emotional Weight of Starting Over
No one talks about the identity shift, the loneliness, or the sheer exhaustion of navigating a new system without your usual support network.
Bureaucratic Roadblocks Everywhere
Dutch systems interconnect in frustrating ways—registering with the city delays your bank account, which delays your utilities, which delays everything else.
One Delay Triggers Another
When one task slips, everything else starts to unravel—school spots fill up, rental timelines collapse, and stress escalates.
