Hello @JWBA 

 

It's best to do it before you leave the Netherlands so it will work immediately after landing.
The correct code to sms to 1266 is: VSCAN 10 AAN
See this page: https://www.kpn.com/mobiel-abonnement/bundels/buitenland.htm

 

Also it's advisable to do this (translated from Dutch):

Adjust the protectionlimit

If you want to lower the protectionlimit to 0 euros, you can do so by: SMS bescherming aan to 1266

This sets the limit to 0,- and you will not be able to use mobile internet outside the EU until you turn the limit back on yourself (protection off to 1266) or activate a favorable Extra foreign bundle.
