The 10-year Passport is Here

The long-awaited introduction of the 10-year passport is here HOWEVER: dual nationals will need to pay very close attention to their passport expirations, as noted.  A “verklaring bezit Nederlanderschap” is valid for only 10 years, and thus does not prevent loss of nationality if the passport expires.
