without having a main destination, you should apply for a visa at the
Embassy or Consulate General of the first Schengen country on your
travel itinerary that requires you to have a visa.

Short term visit visa

Many foreign nationals – depending on their
nationality – require a Schengen visa to visit the Netherlands. This
visa was introduced on 26 March 1995 and is valid for the following
European countries:

Austria, Belgium, Denmark, France, Finland, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal,

Spain and Sweden.

A Schengen visa allows you to travel in and between
these countries. Please be aware that you may still be refused entry at
the border if you do not meet all other admission requirements: a visa
in itself is not a right to enter a country.

The Consulate General of the Netherlands in Dubai also issues  Schengen visa on behalf of Belgium and Luxembourg.

Long stay visa (MVV)

for temporary stay (MVV) is needed. With this MVV you can travel to the
Netherlands during 180 days and start the procedure for a residence
permit.
It is important that you apply for the temporary residence permit at
least three months prior to your intended stay in the Netherlands.
More information on obtaining an MVV is available on the website of the Dutch Immigration and Naturalisation Service, the IND: www.ind.nl
