Can I do volunteer work while visiting for 2 months in Amsterdam?

Accepted answer

Yes. You are allowed to do vrijwilligerswerk, as it is called in Dutch, if you have a legal permit to be there. One exception is when you are awaiting a decision as to your status. This site contains Dutch-language information on the topic. Google Translate may be your friend.

However, you might need to be careful with insurances: See here.

I don't know if you can get a visa through doing the volunteer labour, though.

I would recommend to contact the organisation where you want to do volunteer labour for practical issues.
