Here on Trippist we like to provide lots of entertainment info, but sometimes - particularly if you're contemplating a move to the Netherlands - it's good to know where to go for the official stuff.

Gemeente Rotterdam offers a great deal of practical information in English on its website. They answer questions like: Where can I learn Dutch? Do I qualify for the 30% tax ruling? Do I need to exchange my driving license?

Rotterdam's Expatdesk provides even more relevant information, and is located at the World Trade Center at Beursplein 37 in Rotterdam (email: expatdesk@rotterdam.nl).
