IamExpat Fair 2025: Help and inspiration for internationals
Get support with everyday life and official matters
There’s so much to arrange when moving to a new country: finding a home, choosing a school, learning the language, filing your taxes… Accessing the right information and services is crucial.
At the IamExpat Fair, dozens of businesses offering a variety of services and advice will be in attendance, making sure all relevant topics are covered. Experts are on hand to answer any questions you may have about life as an international in the Amsterdam Area, so you’ll have face-to-face contact and can ask questions in person.
There will be plenty of presentations and workshops to attend, too. Please note that you need to register separately for each workshop. Be quick – these fill up fast.
New iconic location in 2025
The IamExpat fair is the biggest of its kind in the Netherlands. For the first time, it’s taking place at the historic Beurs van Berlage building in central Amsterdam. Built between 1896 and 1903 as a commodity exchange and designed by the influential architect HP Berlage, the Beurs van Berlage is now used for events and conferences, offering a fitting backdrop for the fair.
The new location is easily accessible – just a few minutes’ walk from Centraal Station and Dam Square. Plus, there is a handy underground bike park next door.
Give your career a boost and make new connections
The IamExpat fair is also a useful destination for job-seekers or those looking for career inspiration. It features an extensive careers section with a wide range of Dutch companies looking to recruit internationals – a valuable chance to expand your network.
In addition to having a look inside one of Amsterdam’s most iconic buildings, the IamExpat Fair is an opportunity to connect with other internationals and share insights and experiences. When you need a break in the day, grab a coffee or lunch in the hospitality area.
Meet the IN Amsterdam team
The IN Amsterdam team will be present and available at the IamExpat Fair to answer questions about official procedures regarding immigration and visas, employment law, municipal matters and life in the Amsterdam Area. Be sure to drop by and say hello!
