About News Netherlands
News Netherlands is a multilingual news outlet that covers the Netherlands' politics, economy, society, culture and everyday information in 50 languages. Our goal is to let readers around the world read accurate information about the Netherlands, based on official sources, in their own language.
What we cover
- Top stories — We organize the Netherlands' key news by section: government announcements, official statistics, and the agendas of the House of Representatives (Tweede Kamer), ministries and public institutions.
- Netherlands Guide — Essential information for readers abroad, such as entry and residence permits, public transport and cycling, housing and settling in, health insurance and safety, and Dutch culture and etiquette.
- 50 languages — We publish in 50 languages, including Dutch, English, German, French, Spanish, Arabic, Turkish and Chinese (Traditional and Simplified).
How we work
News Netherlands writes its articles based on public sources such as official announcements and statistics from Dutch ministries, public agencies such as Statistics Netherlands (CBS), the national meteorological institute (KNMI) and the national public health institute (RIVM), the European Union and other international organizations. Each language edition is written natively by our editorial team with the help of artificial intelligence (AI) tools, and we publish only articles that pass our sourcing rules and quality checks. See our Editorial Standards for details.
