Directorate of Immigration: Residence permits - Types

Are there the same age conditions for au pairs from countries within the EEA and from countries outside the EEA?

Applicants for a residence permit as an au-pair must be between the ages of 18 and 25 when applying for a residence permit.

Those who come from the EEA region and want to work as au-pairs do not need to meet the age requirement. See further at the National Registry.
