I need to stop with my study programme temporarily / permanently. What are the consequences for my residence permit?
If
you have decided to quit your studies and you no longer attend the
University of Groningen, the IND will process and terminate your
legal stay as soon as possible after your deregistration from the
University. You will have to leave the Netherlands as soon as
possible.
If you leave the Netherlands, please do not forget to cancel your health insurance, de-register from the Municipality, and close your bank account. Also you must return your residence permit card to the IND. As soon as the ISD has processed your termination, you will receive an email with all the relevant information on how to return your residence permit card.
If you wish to stay here for any other purpose, please contact the IND for the possibilities or check the website of the IND.
