Phone subscription for a foreigner

Hello, 

I have lived in the Netherlands and used KPN for almost 3 years now. I previously got a subscription for a phone that I paid off in 2 years, and that time my payments were 20eur max a month. However I would like to get a new phone with a higher monthly amount and on the website it says its not allowed because I am using a foreign ID card. I have read on your page that if I receive a residence proof from the municipality , I can get a phone subscription with the same rights as a dutch resident, meaning I would be allowed to pay higher monthly amounts without having to pay a very high one off payment,  is that true? Can this be done online or should I then visit one of your stores?

Thank you in advance

Hi. Thank you for your response. I actually visited a store today and was able to get a subscription which I wanted. Since I already used KPN before the process was very fast and easy. There were also no issues with not having a dutch ID. So for anyone else who is looking to get a phone I recommend KPN:)

Hello @Lijana and welcome! It’s great to read you already have a subscription with us. You can best visit one of our stores when you have the time, so we can check the possibilities together. You will need a valid ID card, this can be for example an EU passport or EU ID card. There will be a check if you can pay the monthly amount and the limit of this amount. You can read more about this on our website gespreid betalen.
