Consular departmentThe ministry of Foreign Affairs (the department in The Hague and the embassies en consulates abroad) makes an effort to render the optimum consular assistance to all Dutch nationals abroad and those who are in need of this assistance. For some of the services the costs will be charged.
the render of consular assistance depends from case to case, because of the big distinctions in:
- local circumstances
- the size of the occupation of the representations
- the needs of the individual Dutchman
differences in matter of terms, size and exact way of rendering of service are inevitable in some cases.
