Relocation

Relocation support for dentists moving to the Netherlands or Belgium

Moving abroad is the part of the journey that surprises most dentists. We help you navigate everything beyond the clinic: housing, registration, banking, schools, and settling in with your family.

Step by step

How it works

01

Pre-arrival planning

A clear checklist of what to prepare in your home country: documents, translations, finances, and language milestones.

02

Arrival & registration

Help with BSN (NL) or rijksregisternummer (BE), municipal registration, and your first appointments.

03

Housing & banking

Trusted referrals for rental agencies, mortgage brokers, and Dutch/Belgian bank account setup.

04

Family & integration

Schools, healthcare insurance, language schools, partner job search support, and a community of other relocated dentists.

Founder note
I started DentistBridge because I know how confusing it can feel to move abroad, register correctly and choose the right clinic. As a Swedish-trained dentist, clinic owner in the Netherlands and registered dentist in Belgium, I help European dentists make safer career decisions.

Do you help with housing?
We don't rent houses ourselves, but we share a vetted list of relocation agents and brokers, and we coach you on rental viewings and Dutch/Belgian housing contracts.
What about my partner and children?
We support your whole move — schools (international and local), partner career resources, and family healthcare insurance.
Will I get a tax-friendly status?
In the Netherlands, the 30% ruling significantly reduces tax for qualifying expats. In Belgium, the new expat regime can apply to qualifying international hires.

Our placement service is free for dentists (clinics pay our fee). Third-party costs (translations, language courses, moving) are explained transparently in your plan.
