International Service Desk

Maastricht offers support for expats to settle in the Maastricht region. Through these webpages you will find information on living, working and business in our region.

In 2010, the municipality and its partners will further develop the services of the International Service Desk Maastricht Region. Naturally, we will keep you informed of the progress on this website. At the Gemeenteloket (Municipal Service Desk) in Maastricht, you can visit the (as yet unmanned) International Service Desk on the first floor. Currently, this desk enables you to visit relevant websites. In the near future, the municipality Maastricht wants to receive people here as well.
