The Netherlands has concluded social security treaties with a large number of countries. The aim of these treaties is to promote the equal treatment of one another's nationals.
One of the main sources of treaty law in this field is the European regulations applicable to nationals of the Member States of the European Union (EU) and the countries of the European Economic Area (EEA). The European regulations govern social security by arranging for the preservation and transfer of rights between the Member States of the European Union.
