In the Netherlands, there is plenty of vaccination against the Covid-19 virus. The government also makes a corona vaccine available for labor migrants who stay in the Netherlands for longer than 4 weeks. OrangeJobs strongly advises all migrant workers to get vaccinated against the Covid-19 virus.

Migrant workers who are registered in the BRP will receive an invitation from the RIVM at their home address when it is their age group's turn.
Are you registered in the Registration of Non-Residents (RNI) with e-mail address?
Migrant workers who are registered in the RNI and who have provided their e-mail address will receive a digital newsletter in various languages from the government. This states when an appointment can be made (based on year of birth) and how they can do this.
