Subject:Family reunification: basisexamen inburgering buitenland (A1)
For partners moving from Turkey to the Netherlands, in two tiers: a 48-hour live programme from zero, or a short exam package if you are already close to A1. We focus on Spreken and Lezen, where Turkish candidates' first-attempt results are below the average.

Programme flow
We start by checking the application type and possible exemption; we do not assume every Turkish candidate must sit the exam. Then come the intake interview, the language foundation, KNS, a timed mock exam and a plan for weak skills. You practise giving clear answers into the microphone, answering short questions and reading simple texts. The free official samples from Naar Nederland are our reference; what we sell is personal explanation, routine and correction.
Measurable assurance
We do not give a pass guarantee. A student who reaches the threshold score in the mock exams and attends 80 percent of lessons but does not pass receives a 4-week repeat module free of charge. We report our first-attempt pass rate at the end of each term. Pending teacher approval
What you face in the exam
- Spreken: spoken answers on the computer, short questions and describing a picture
- Lezen: reading short texts and signs, multiple choice
- KNS: knowledge of Dutch society from a pool of 100+ questions
- Three parts together 150 EUR; May 2026 tariff, appointment via Naar Nederland
Frequently asked questions
Who has to sit this exam?
The basisexamen inburgering buitenland applies to certain nationalities and age groups applying for family reunification with an MVV; exemptions depend on the application type. We check your situation in the enrolment interview and, where needed, ask for confirmation from the IND or your adviser.
I do not speak a word of Dutch, how many months do I need?
The 48-hour programme from zero runs over 12 weeks. With 4 live hours a week plus 4-6 hours of self-study you work towards the exam format. If the exam date is pressing, private lessons can be added.
Do you book the exam appointment?
No, the appointment and fee are handled by the candidate via Naar Nederland. We plan together, based on the programme calendar, at which stage you should apply.
Can I pay in TL from Turkey?
Yes. For students in Turkey the seller is Dutch Expat İnsan Kaynakları Danışmanlık A.Ş.; the TL price is indexed to the euro and fixed at enrolment.
