Best Answer

Your Dutch resident permit will not automatically transform into a 90-day visitor visa. You must take active steps to make that happen. Not really a problem, when you leave the Schengen zone just stop at Immigration and ask them to cancel your nearly-expired resident permit. Or you can do it on the way back in, whichever is easier.

Under no circumstances do either of the following:

be in Holland (or anywhere else in Europe) the day after your work permit expires.
do any paid work while there with a 90-day visitor visa.

What is the 90 day travel rule?

Under the terms of Schengen, non-EEA nationals cannot spend more than a total of 90 days within a total period of 180 days without a visa. Furthermore, once you've used up your quota of 90 days, you cannot return to Schengen until 90 more days have passed.

Can I travel with residence permit receipt?

So the answer is, you can travel to your home country with your ricevuta but you cannot travel to other Schengen Areas with a permesso di soggiorno receipt.

Can I come back to Europe after 90 days?

Most visitors (including Americans) are allowed to spend 90 days in the Schengen Area in every 180-day period. The easiest way to think of it is that you can visit for 3 months and then you have to leave for 3 months before you can return.

What happens if I overstay my 90 days in Europe?

A non-EU national who stays in the Schengen area beyond 90 days (without a residence permit or long-stay visa) is illegally present, which can result in a re-entry ban to the Schengen area.
