In order to transfer the benefit to one of the EU countries, it is necessary to receive a positive decision regarding the benefit in the Netherlands and to receive it for a minimum of 4 weeks in the Netherlands while looking for work.
If you have received the benefit for 3 months, you will only receive 2 months in the country to which you transfer the benefit. If you have received 12 months’ benefit, you will only use up to 3 months in the country to which you are transferring the benefit after you have used up week 4 in the Netherlands (so your benefit will be reduced). But you can also transfer the benefit after more than 4 weeks. It is also possible to return to the Netherlands after 3 months and continue receiving the remaining benefit in the Netherlands.
You will receive a PD U2 form from UWV by post, which you must submit within 7 days of leaving the Netherlands to the relevant employment office and register as a jobseeker in the country to which you have transferred your benefit.
