Tips and Tricks – in times of quarantine

First of all, we would like to welcome you to the Netherlands! Hopefully you had a safe flight!

Unfortunately for some of you, due to the corona virus and self-quarantine measures, you will not be
able to join us physically for the introduction week and/or start of the program. We understand that this
is not how you wanted your first days in the Netherlands to be. But we are here for you! For those of
you who will need self-quarantine it can be very helpful to have some additional information. Therefore
we have some tips and tricks for you to keep you up and running these next couple of days!

Groceries
We recommend the Picnic Online Supermarket app. You can install this app on your phone, or order
from your computer. There is an English language option and they deliver to your doorstep.

Ordering food
It is possible to order food online via www.thuisbezorgd.nl. You are able to switch language on this
app and pay with credit card. Thuisbezorgd will deliver your meal to your doorstep.

What type of non-medical face mask do I need to wear (while travelling) in the Netherlands?
When travelling by public transport, taxi, coach or car, a non-medical face mask that does not have a
filter and is made of a material such as cotton is enough. These types of face mask are sold in places
like supermarkets and pharmacies. At train stations, non-medical face masks are for sale in the
following shops: Kiosk, AKO, Albert Heijn, HEMA and Etos. They can also be bought from vending
machines on platforms. You may not use a scarf, face shield/visor, snood, bandanna, the collar of a
jacket, or a non-medical face mask made from a sock, for instance. Gas masks should also not be
used.

I don't have a non-medical face mask. Can I travel on public transport?


No. All passengers aged 13 and over are required to wear a non-medical face mask. The fine for not
wearing a non-medical face mask is €95.

Are restaurants and cafés in the Netherlands open?


Yes, restaurants, cafés and outdoor seating areas are open in the Netherlands, but special restrictions
apply. Restaurants, cafés and bars must use reservations (made either in advance or at the door),
pre-entry health checks and assigned seating (at either a table or the bar). This applies both outdoors
and indoors and regardless of the size of the establishment. You must be asked to provide your name
and contact details so that the municipal health service (GGD) can contact you if an outbreak is traced
to that establishment. You can voluntarily provide this information.

Are museums and other places of interest open?


Museums and monuments are open. The maximum number of visitors depends on the size of the
building. Visitors could be asked whether they have cold-like symptoms or a fever.

What should I do if I develop symptoms of COVID-19?
If you have symptoms that suggest you may have COVID-19, remain inside wherever you are staying
and arrange to be tested. Call 0800-1202 or +31 850 659 063 to arrange an appointment. If you test
positive for COVID-19, you and any travelling companions must self-isolate in your accommodation for
10 days.
