Consejos de llegada a Amsterdam Airport Schiphol

If you arrive from outside the Schengen Area, you go through passport control before baggage claim. Non-EU travelers are registered in the EU Entry/Exit System (EES), fully operational since 10 April 2026; the planned ETIAS travel authorization is not yet in operation. Flights from other Schengen countries arrive without a passport check.

After collecting your bags and passing customs, you come out into one of the arrival halls, which all open onto Schiphol Plaza. The arrival hall for your flight is shown on the screens in the terminal and in the Schiphol app.

In Schiphol Plaza, the meeting point is where most pre-booked drivers and friends wait. The train station is one level below the plaza, and the official taxi stand is outside in front of Schiphol Plaza. Use only taxis from that stand and decline taxis offered to you without asking. Uber and Bolt cars use the separate App pick-up point.

The Netherlands is on Central European Time and uses the euro. Weather is mild and often wet and windy, so a rain jacket helps year-round.
