The eight things expats ask us for first.
Hello, I am Johanna
I founded E & I in 2016, after years in the embassy world. What I saw there still shapes the work: people who move countries do best when someone goes with them, not when they are handed a checklist.
So every client works with me personally. I prepare your permit, search for your home, come along to the municipality and the IND, and stay on the same WhatsApp line once you have arrived.
Johanna, founder of E & I
More about JohannaThe right permit, prepared the right way
Dutch immigration rewards preparation. We assess which route actually fits your situation, prepare the application the way the IND wants to see it, and go with you to the appointments that matter.
The specialist for the port of Rotterdam
Europe’s largest port does not appear in relocation brochures, yet tens of thousands of international professionals build their careers there. We are the only boutique consultancy specialised in Rotterdam, the region south of it, Europoort, the Botlek and the Maasvlakte, working daily with the port, offshore, shipping and engineering companies that bring people here.
Rotterdam
Skyline living, international schools and the fastest-changing city in the Netherlands.
Europoort, Botlek & Maasvlakte
Practical relocation for port, offshore and refinery professionals and their families.
South of Rotterdam
Quiet towns like Brielle, Rozenburg and Hellevoetsluis, minutes from the terminals and a world away from them.
Local knowledge
We know the neighbourhoods, schools, landlords and commutes of this region street by street.
Fast personal assistance
We are nearby, so we can be at a viewing, a municipality desk or an emergency on short notice.
An established network
Agents, municipalities, schools and international employers in the region already know us.
Support after arrival
The relationship does not end at the keys. We stay the point of contact long after you settle in.
VIP relocation services
Arrive the way you are used to arriving
Some clients cannot spend six weeks on paperwork. They fly in for a weekend, sign, register and fly out while we finish the rest. Our VIP packages compress an entire relocation into a schedule built around you: appointments aligned in a single visit, housing shortlisted before you land, a car waiting at Schiphol.
Couples, families and businesses each have their own package, and the concierge tier is written around whatever your life requires.
Discover VIP relocationMoving a family is a different discipline
School years that start on fixed dates, several IND files instead of one, and a home that has to work for everyone. We coordinate the whole family arrival, immigration included, in one plan and one pair of hands.
Family relocation services
A home, not just an address
The Dutch rental market moves in days, not weeks. We search, attend viewings with you or for you, review every contract clause before you sign, and stay the point of contact for your landlord long after the keys are yours.
All housing servicesFound your company where the world docks
Startup visa, DAFT treaty, KvK registration, an address, a home, a school for your children. Most firms handle one of those. We handle the sequence, because a founder does not move in stages, a founder moves a life.
Business services
One consultancy. One person. Your name.
Large relocation firms assign you a ticket number. A boutique consultancy assigns you a person. Johanna built her reputation in the embassy world, where discretion and precision are not qualities, they are the job description.
We are not a volume relocation firm offering every possible service. We do relocation, housing, VIP support and immigration for one region, through one company, and we do those completely.
We go with you
To the municipality, the IND, the bank and the viewing. You are never handed a checklist and wished good luck.
24/7, personally
One WhatsApp line, answered by the person managing your file. Day or night, first week or first year.
The only one of its kind
The Netherlands has corporate mobility firms and it has visa desks. It has exactly one boutique expat concierge.
Packages built around lives
Couple, family, business or full concierge. Each package covers the whole arrival, not a slice of it.
