News from the Personnel Department for Leiden University Staff

A note on visa and work permits Please note that if you are going to be employed by the university, you are not required to undertake any further action on your own in securing a visa. The university maintains close contacts with all bodies involved in immigration issues and is best placed to efficiently secure the necessary permits. Any action you undertake in approaching the immigration authorities with a personal application will duplicate the process and cause confusion.
