IND recognised sponsors in HR, Staffing & Recruitment
116 organisations we have classified into this sector appear on the IND public register of recognised sponsors, as held in our copy of 1 July 2026. Staffing groups, secondment firms and payroll companies make up a large block of the register — they sponsor on behalf of clients as well as for themselves, which is why so many appear on the IND list.
Where these employers are
The large Dutch staffing groups are headquartered in Diemen, Amsterdam and Almere, with technology secondment firms concentrated in Eindhoven, Utrecht and Rotterdam.
Roles that typically qualify
International recruiters, global mobility specialists, HR business partners in multinationals, compensation and benefits analysts, and HR technology consultants.
What recognised sponsor status does and does not mean
A recognised sponsor is an organisation the IND has admitted to its register, which allows it to apply for a highly skilled migrant permit on your behalf under the fast procedure. It is a permission the employer holds, not a promise it makes. An employer on this list may have no vacancies, may not hire outside the EU, and may still decline to sponsor a particular hire.
Being sponsored by a secondment firm means your permit is tied to that employer rather than to the client you work for. Understand the contract structure, the notice period and what happens between assignments before you sign.
The salary you would need to clear in 2026
The highly skilled migrant criterion is a gross monthly salary, excluding the 8% holiday allowance, and it does not vary by sector — the same figure applies whether you join a hr, staffing & recruitment employer or any other recognised sponsor.
| Situation | Gross per month (2026) |
|---|---|
| Highly skilled migrant, under 30 | €4,357 |
| Highly skilled migrant, 30 or over | €5,942 |
| Reduced criterion (orientation year / recent Dutch graduate) | €3,122 |
| EU Blue Card | €5,942 |
| EU Blue Card, reduced | €4,754 |
Not sure which line applies to you? Run the eligibility check — it works out your age band, route and gap against the criterion.
