Small Businesses appeal new Licence requirements

If you are a small business owner and and don't have a Kingdom of Holland passport, then the following rules now apply when requesting your director's license, your residence and work permits too.

To renew their residence permits, foreign directors have to prove that they earned a salary of at least NAf. 75,000 per year during the preceding year and have proof that the business has an annual turnover of at least NAf. 500,000. Also, the foreigner has to have suitable accommodations by either owning a house valued at a minimum of NAf. 275,000 or renting a home for at least NAf. 2,250 per month.

Can you meet those requirements? No? Then read this.. If you can't be at the Chamber of Commerce meeting next week (when is it?) then you can find their phone and email contact info here.
