Can I travel abroad without a residence permit card?
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 back into the Netherlands unless you have a return visa in
your passport.
The only exception to this rule is if you have an mvv 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 date at the top of your mvv sticker.
