Municipality of Bunnik: applying for Dutch citizenship by naturalisation

You can apply for Dutch nationality if you are registered with the municipality of Bunnik. There are 2 options to apply for Dutch nationality: 

  • by option (this is the fastest procedure, but not everyone is eligible) 
  • through naturalization

Please note: you can only apply for Dutch citizenship by naturalisation if you live in the Netherlands and are registered with a municipality.

If you meet the conditions, you can make an appointment for your naturalisation application.

  • The municipality assesses whether you meet all conditions for naturalisation and provides the Immigratie- en Naturalisatiedienst – IND (Immigration and Naturalisation Service) with advice. The municipality sends your file to the IND.
  • The IND checks whether you meet all conditions and takes a decision. The IND must take a decision within 12 months. If you have any questions about the application in the meantime, you can contact the IND.
  • You officially become a Dutch citizen only after the naturalisation ceremony.
  • You can apply for a Dutch travel document 1 week after the naturalisation ceremony.
