Anyone who would like to apply for a passport from one of the Schengen nations need to have an additional thing before applying - proof of citizenship by a valid email address. To be able to check the identity of the applicant must provide a valid email address using a legal subscription to a site that's managed by the country of residence. To execute the verification procedure simply sign up in a registration website that is operated by the consulate or a Dutch embassy, fill out the application form, pay any administrative fees and then wait for your passport to arrive in the email.

It's a rather straightforward procedure but it does require some effort on the part of the applicant. After signing up and confirming that your citizenship by means of your Dutch consulate, you can go right ahead and get yourself a complete Dutch Passport from the Netherlands embassy that handles affairs about citizens of the Netherlands etias. The practice of getting a Schengen visa from Greece is a little more involved and lengthy, but it's possible.

Besides demonstrating citizenship via a valid email address, the applicant must also submit copies of birth certificates, identity checks and proof of home. This may take several months, if a person wants to perform it all oneself. There's a system which enables applicants to submit proofs of home directly to the consulate. This makes the entire application process much simpler and quicker, particularly for people that want to apply for a visa in a short quantity of time.

There are also other documents that will be necessary in order to prove your identity for a resident of the Netherlands. These include work permits and residence permit that can only be issued by the consulate. If these requirements aren't fulfilled, the applicant may still apply for a Schengen visa, but the waiting period will be longer. Applicants who fail to follow the procedures for demonstrating citizenship or who have their applications denied can wind up being stripped of their nationality and expelled from the Netherlands altogether. A Netherlands visa will also be suspended while this happens.
