Unemployment benefit for persons registered in the Netherlands

Are you registered in the Netherlands? It will be much easier to apply for, receive and maintain your benefit than if would not be registered.

You must register at WERKbedrijf and fill your application for unemployment benefit online. The application is done by means of DigiD electronic signature with SMS or APP verification. Therefore, you must first make sure that you have DigiD together with additional verification. If you do not have the DigiD signature – contact me – I will help you to set it up.

You submit job searches via the Internet using your own private account on the www.werk.nl website.

Any changes such as finding a job, going on vacation, changing address, etc. must be also reported online.

At the end of each month we have to fill out a form with the income earned in that month. The form should also be filled if you did not have any income. This form is also filled via the Internet.

All documents such as pay slips, jaaropgaaf etc. can also be found after logging into your personal account.

DO NOT FORGET!

IF YOU ARE RECEIVING A BENEFIT AND YOUR SITUATION HAS CHANGED (E.G. YOU HAVE CHANGED YOUR ADDRESS, GO ON VACATION, START A NEW JOB, ETC.) BE SURE TO CONTACT ME AND I WILL SUBMIT THESE CHANGES TO UWV. YOU WILL PREVENT THE FINE.

If you were not registered in the Netherlands in 2025 or were registered only for part of the year and in the previous years (2023/2024) you had arranged a certificate of (zero or low) income from your country and your situation has not changed, i.e. you still have no income from your country (or the income was very low), then you do not have to arrange a certificate of income about 2025 again.
