I am from the Netherlands and considering to apply for a METV (I am in the Netherlands now). I quit my job a while ago and want to travel and visit my girlfriend. I found some information saying I need an employment letter or a statement of enrolment from an academic institute. I have never heard this before, but do I really need it? If so, should I apply for the SETV? I thought I only need onward travel docs, enough money on my bank account and hotel reservation. Thank you
