That question isn't easy to answer. When you live in the Netherlands, you just become it. I'm Dutch, and if I hear from a lot of Americans, we are a 'polite' country. It's not usual for example, to have a gun or a nife. When you have learn't to speak Dutch, it's easy for people to accept you, because that shows respect for the Dutch culture.

Hope I helpded!

Your father was a Dutch citizen when you were born are you eligible for a Dutch passport if you are a U.S. citizen?

Yes, a child born from a Dutch parent is eligible for Dutch citizenship and passport. You can contact the Dutch embassy or consulate for help with the process. The younger the child is at time of application the easier the process. ---- You might want to search www.minbuza.nl - the website of the Dutch Department of Foreign Affairs. You have the option of viewing it in English. According to the law, if your baby's father has now acknowledged the child as his while in utero, it might prove difficult or even impossible to obtain Dutch citizenship for your baby. On the other hand, if the mother was a Dutch citizen, the child would have been eligible for Dutch citizenship regardless of mom's acknowledgement dring pregnancy. Sounds old fashioned, but it's the law.


If my grandparents were Dutch citizens when i was born am I eligible for a Dutch passport?

In the Netherlands, citizenship is conferred through 'blood'. Meaning you become a Dutch citizen by being born to Dutch citizens. If your grandparents were Dutch, and one of your parents claimed Dutch citizenship (which would be possible) and acquired it, then you would also be eligible for a Dutch password.

Can you still keep your dutch permit after separating your dutch husband?

In principle, yes. But there are a few conditions in those cases where you originally got your permit because you were coming to Holland to marry a Dutch citizen. The first is, that you have stayed in the Netherlands - AND lived together with your husband - for five years. The other one is that you have succesfully completed your "Inburgeringsexamen". If you did get the original permit because you came to marry a Dutch citizen and meet the above conditions, extention of you permit is not automatical; you have to apply for a permit voor "voortgezet verblijf".

Your grandfather was a dutch national who gave up his citizenship to take up another nationality can you now apply for dutch citizenship?

I was a dutch national who became an Australian citizen However the dutch still consider me Dutch. In your case the situation seems a little more extreme and I suggest you contact the Netherlands Consulate for clear advice on this question. You can apply for Dutch citizenship, but as far as I know you will be treated no differently because of the history of your grandfather. Anyone can attempt to apply for Dutch citizenship, but your situation as described in your question does not give you any eligibility.
