Is Liman Restaurant an IND recognised sponsor?

What this does and does not tell you

• It is a permission, not an intention. Liman Restaurant is permitted to sponsor. Nothing on the register says it has open roles, hires outside the EU, or would sponsor you specifically.
• It applies to this legal entity. Dutch groups often register several entities separately, and the one that appears here may not be the one that would employ you. Check which entity is named on your contract.
• The salary criterion still applies. Sponsorship does not lower the required gross monthly salary — see the figures below.
• The register changes. Organisations join and leave it. Confirm on the official IND register before you make a decision.

Sector: Hospitality & Leisure

This is the sector where recognised sponsor status is most often misread. Many hospitality companies appear on the register, but very few hospitality roles pay enough to meet the highly skilled migrant criterion.

Chefs, front-of-house, guest services and most supervisory roles fall below the criterion. If you are looking at this sector, check the salary before you check the register.

The salary you would need at this employer

The IND sets one gross monthly figure, excluding the 8% holiday allowance, and it does not depend on the employer. For 2026 it is €4,357 if you are under 30, €5,942 from 30 onwards, and €3,122 under the reduced criterion that applies during the orientation year or shortly after graduating from a Dutch programme. The EU Blue Card route sits at €5,942 (€4,754 reduced).
