If I want to apply for a DTV in The Netherlands do I have to translate all my documents, which are in Dutch, in English by an official translate agency and also stamped by a notary?

You do not need to translate your Dutch documents into English for a DTV application in The Netherlands, as confirmed by several contributors who successfully used Dutch documents without any issues. Some users noted that Dutch applications can be set to English to produce statements if needed.

Most dutch apps can easily be set to English to generate English statements. This is what I did.
