All Highly-skilled Migrants, Scientific Researchers, Orientation Year talents, EU Blue Card holders, Start-up entrepreneurs, Intra-corporate Transferees and their families from all three Northern provinces may use the International Welcome Center North to swiftly arrange government formalities, provided that they live in, or work for a company located in, one of the associated municipalities and that their employer is registered as a “recognized sponsor” with the IND.

Citizens of the EU/EEA or Switzerland do not need a residence permit to stay in the Netherlands if their stay is based on the EC Treaty, but they are still required to register with their local Municipality, and this can be accomplished at the IWCN using an accelerated procedure. All international residents of the three Northern provinces, whether EU/EEA or non-EU/EEA, are welcome to use the information services and join in on the social activities and events of the International Welcome Center North.

Osce High Commissioner On National Minorities
The High Commissioner on National Minorities (HCNM) is mandated to work as “an instrument of conflict prevention at the earliest possible stage.” This involves containing and de-escalating tensions involving national minorities within the OSCE area and alerting the Organization to risks by providing early warning and early action where a situation has the potential to turn into a conflict. The High Commissioner gets involved in a situation if, in his judgement, there are tensions involving national minorities which could develop into a conflict. Much of the day-to-day work is in identifying and addressing causes of ethnic tensions and conflicts. The High Commissioner addresses the short-term triggers of inter-ethnic tension or conflict and long-term structural concerns. If a participating State is not meeting its political commitments or international norms, the High Commissioner will assist by providing analysis and recommendations. The High Commissioner does not require the approval of the Permanent Council or of the state concerned to get involved. He acts in confidence and independently of all parties concerned, although speeches, news and publications are available to the public. Based on experience, the HCNM publishes thematic Recommendations and Guidelines that give advice on common challenges and best practice. The HCNM also provides structural support through small collaborative projects that aim to achieve sustainability through increasing local ownership. He does not deal with individual cases or situations involving organized acts of terrorism, or communicate with any person or organization that practices or publicly condones terrorism or violence.

Icertifi
iCertifi is uniquely positioned to assist manufactures plan for & comply with any slice within the spectrum of global regulatory requirements. Our team of regulatory professionals and seasoned project managers utilize their combined 100 years of experience to introduce efficiencies to a manufacture’s compliance process. Our laboratory and agency relationships result in accelerated certification processes and quicker product launches. Whether the need is in EMC, RF, Product Safety, SVHC’s, eWaste, Energy Efficiency or Cyber Security certifications… iCertifi has you covered. iCertifi is the result of years of growth from what was originally Americas Compliance Consulting. ACC started as a compliance agency that focused solely on type approval in the Central/Latin America and Caribbean regions. Because of the nature of the industry and clients’ needs for certification beyond just CALA/Caribbean, it made sense to offer a “one-stop shop” so clients didn’t need to break apart their requests between different companies. iCertifi offers local representative/certificate holder services for all the countries that require a certificate to be in a local agent’s name. We track the expiration dates of all certificates that have limited validity, sending notification 90 days in advance of the date of expiration, and again as the date draws nearer. This allows our clients to determine if a renewal should be made in a given region based on sales and marketing efforts. We understand that your staff has more than just certification tracking in your scope of job duties, so we gladly take that off your plate so you can focus on the other pressing points of your job.
