Can I travel within and outside Europe (EU/EEA) with a Dutch residence permit for study purposes?
If
you have a valid Dutch study residence permit, you can travel
within the EU/EEA. However, make sure your permit is still valid
whilst you are travelling. If this is not the case, please extend
your residence permit on time.
If you are waiting for a (new) residence permit card and you do not currently have a valid residence permit card, you cannot travel out of and return to the Netherlands unless you have a return visa in your passport.
The only exception to this rule is if you have an mvv (long-term multiple entry visa) in your passport that is still valid. The mvv serves as a temporary residence permit, and will allow you to re-enter the Netherlands. You can find the validity dates at the top of your mvv sticker.
