Sou elegível para viajar para a Holanda em um intercâmbio de 6 meses na universidade usando o WHS?

Você não precisa de um MVV, ponto final. Isto é verdade se você está aplicando sob o regime de férias de trabalho ou como estudante. Os nacionais da Austrália (e do Canadá, Japão, Mônaco, Nova Zelândia, Coréia do Sul, Estados Unidos da América e Cidade do Vaticano) simplesmente não exigem um MVV em nenhum caso. Veja link :

You are not required to obtain an MVV if you are a national of Australia, Canada, Japan, Monaco, New Zealand, South Korea, the USA or Vatican City. Instead, your host in the Netherlands can apply for your residence permit before you arrive in the Netherlands. You may also apply for a residence permit yourself after you have arrived in the Netherlands.

The Working Holiday scheme between the Netherlands and Australia, New Zealand and Canada offers an opportunity to young people from these countries to visit the Netherlands for a period of up to twelve months with the objective of combining a holiday with work experience, thus supplementing their financial resources during their stay.

Please note: you can only make use of this scheme once.

Eligibility

To qualify for the Working Holiday scheme applicants must comply with the following conditions

• be an Australian, Canadian or New Zealand national
• be aged between 18 and 30 years, both inclusive, at the time of application (you must enter the Netherlands and register at the Immigration and Naturalisation Service before you turn 31)
• have a national passport valid for at least fifteen months
• have a full medical insurance cover for the Netherlands valid for a minimum of twelve months from date of entry into the Netherlands
• have a return air ticket or sufficient funds to purchase one, and
• not be accompanied by children.

Você pode viajar para a Holanda sem MVV e solicitar uma autorização de residência após a chegada. Será cobrada uma taxa pela autorização de residência.

Os requisitos para os esquema de férias de trabalho são:

Para adicionar uma resposta abrangente do @pnuts, Expatica explica como obter o visto correto (como é fácil, que a escola será aplicada e que isso pode ser feito antes da chegada):

Dutch student visa

Depending on your nationality, you may need a provisional residence permit (MVV) to enter the Netherlands, in addition to a Dutch residence permit to stay in the country for more than three months. Since 2013, the educational establishment (your recognised sponsor) can apply for both permits in one application, through the Entry and Residence Procedure (TEV). You can find out if you need an MVV for entering the Netherlands in Expatica's guide to Dutch provisional residence permits (MVV) and temporary residence permits.

Different rules apply for citizens from the European Union (EU), the European Economic Area (EEA – EU plus Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway) and Switzerland – plus their family members. If this applies to you, read Expatica's guide for EU/EEA/Swiss nationals moving to the Netherlands.
