Bag snatching and pickpocketing is the biggest risk, when thieves will work together to distract you while another picks your pocket or grabs your bag. Thieves have even been known to grab bags from between people&#8217;s feet in restaurants.<\/p>\n<p>Always keep your luggage and belongings in sight.<\/p>\n<p>If you are the victim of a theft contact the nearest police station and get a police report. You also need to be aware that some criminals pose as plain clothes officers to try and trick you out of cash and credit cards, claiming they&#8217;re investigating counterfeit money and plastic. Real police officers will never do this, and it&#8217;s worth knowing that Dutch police don\u2019t have shiny badges, which the fake police sometimes present as ID. Call 0900-8844 to get in touch with the nearest police station if you are not entirely happy.<\/p>\n<p>Avoid confrontation with anyone offering you drugs of any sort and stay away from quiet or dark alleys &#8211; particularly late at night.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re driving in the Netherlands, be aware that trams always have right of way.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, go to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/foreign-travel-advice\/netherlands\">GOV.UK<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.conferencecall.co.uk\/conference-call\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1777 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conferencecall.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/conference-call-banner.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.conferencecall.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/conference-call-banner.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.conferencecall.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/conference-call-banner-300x59.jpg 300w\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"118\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The UK and the Netherlands have many ties &#8211; over 40 Dutch towns and cities are twinned with British towns and cities and, historically, both are maritime countries that have<\/p>\n<div class=\"more-link-wrapper\"><a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.conferencecall.co.uk\/blog\/set-conference-call-netherlands-uk\/\">Read More<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">How to conference call the Netherlands<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[7],"tags":[23,3,9,8],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.9 -
