Looking for an IND recognised referent in the Netherlands to start working as a knowledge migrant? Or as an employer looking for help with IND procedures in the Netherlands? Then we would like to welcome you at PAYSE and help you with this.Â

In other words; we are responsible for total unburdening of both knowledge migrants and employers.Â
With PAYSE as IND contact Netherlands, you as a highly skilled migrant or employer no longer have to think about anything. We take all the administrative hassle and complicated procedures off your hands, so you can be sure that everything is taken care of properly in one go.
An IND recognised referent is an organisation (such as PAYSE) that has received approval from the Dutch Immigration and Naturalisation Service (IND) to bring knowledge migrants to the Netherlands, among other things. As the IND sees an IND approved referent as a ‘reliable partner’, this results in much faster and more efficient IND procedures (e.g. arranging a visa).
As an expat, this allows you to come to the Netherlands much faster and arrange everything around your new job, while as an employer you will be able to recruit foreign talent a lot faster.Â
There are some major differences between applying IND yourself and arranging it all through an IND approved sponsor. Consider, for example:Â

In the IND referent role, we at PAYSE are focused on easing the entire process around IND applications for knowledge migrants and employers.Â
This therefore involves a number of responsibilities, such as:Â

At PAYSE, complete care really is complete care. This means that we take care of the entire process from A to Z for highly skilled migrants who want to work in the Netherlands.
As a recognised IND sponsor, we at PAYSE are a trusted partner of the Immigration and Naturalisation Service (IND) in the Netherlands. This enables us to bring knowledge migrants from outside the EU to the Netherlands as quickly as possible in full compliance with Dutch legislation. This includes:
Since PAYSE is the legal employer of the knowledge migrants, this includes everything related to contracts and payroll.
For instance, we draw up the employment contracts, pay the wages and take care of all mandatory (salary) administration around the knowledge migrant working in the Netherlands.
Where an actual employer arranges the day-to-day management and planning, PAYSE always assumes full legal employment of the knowledge migrant.
A visa and residence permit are crucial for a knowledge migrant. PAYSE does the official, expedited application with the IND, collects all the necessary documents and ensures compliance with all the legal and administrative obligations you have further as a knowledge migrant or employer.
As a legal employer of knowledge migrants, we at PAYSE also provide applying the 30% scheme by paying out part of the salary tax-free. This will leave you with more net pay as a knowledge migrant.
There are a number of conditions attached to this 30% ruling, which of course we at PAYSE always check carefully to make sure we are always fully compliant with the legal requirements in terms of regulation with taxes.
Moreover, our work is by no means over when the onboarding is settled. At PAYSE, we provide ongoing support for knowledge migrants. This includes:
With this, we are always ready for our knowledge migrants and employers to guarantee the necessary compliance & support from start to finish!
As a knowledge migrant or organisation, do you decide to opt for a partnership with PAYSE? Then this is what our total care from start to finish will look like:
It is not for nothing that we have started working with more and more knowledge migrants and employers in recent years. All in all, people choose PAYSE for one or more of the following reasons:

An IND recognised referent is an organisation (e.g. Payse) that has received approval from the Immigration and Naturalisation Service (IND) to act as a reliable partner in bringing in foreign knowledge migrants. This recognition speeds up IND procedures around visa and residence permit applications.
Payse helps you as an IND recognised referent by arranging from A to Z the entire process for knowledge migrants to work legally in the Netherlands. This applies to the highly skilled migrant himself (e.g. arrange residence permit) and also to potential employers (payroll + onboarding).
Registering with Payse as an IND recognised sponsor is possible by contact without obligation. There will then be an intake and eligibility check, after which we can immediately start working together.
Payse is able to submit a large number of applications for knowledge migrants and employers looking for talent. In terms of IND contact options, you should then think about visa, residence permit and 30% applications.
An officially recognised IND referent is in fact the same as an IND contact Netherlands, provided there is official approval by the IND to act as an authorised referent. Payse acts as IND contact Netherlands for knowledge migrants, as we are officially an IND recognised referent.
An application through an IND recognised sponsor is fast-tracked, so a decision on granting a residence permit is normally made within 2 or 3 weeks.
Yes, Payse can also advise on IND procedures. As an IND recognised referent, we are an expert in arranging the entire process around employing knowledge migrants. Contact now and we will be happy to advise you on your specific situation.
Contacting Payse for support is possible by filling in the contact form and/or scheduling an appointment directly with one of our Payse specialists.
