Our Story
Built from 10 years of living it.
ExpatPilot exists because moving to the Netherlands is harder than it should be. And staying informed for the next 10 years is even harder.
Why ExpatPilot exists
When I moved to the Netherlands, I spent weeks figuring out things that should have taken hours. BSN, DigiD, health insurance, housing — nobody gave me a clear roadmap. I made expensive mistakes. I missed deadlines I didn't know existed. I nearly fell for a housing scam.
10 years later, as a tech professional working in the Netherlands, I still get questions from newly arrived expats every week. And I still encounter problems myself — finding a reliable contractor, comparing energy providers, understanding Dutch government letters.
The information exists. It's just scattered across government websites, Facebook groups, Reddit threads, and outdated blog posts — all contradicting each other, none of it personalised.
ExpatPilot is the tool I wished existed from day one. One place, for every stage of your expat life in the Netherlands.
