    It’s not the official language though so all documents and legal stuff would be in Dutch.

    Well, sorta.

    If you’re an immigrant there, the Vreemdelingen Politie and other authorities specifically dealing with immigrants will send you the documention in English if you prefer.

    Also banks will communicate with you in English if you want.

    However, you can forget all about getting anything in English from, for example, the local authorities.

    Mind you, it’s actually fun to learn Dutch IMHO, though I wouldn’t recommend reading official documentation as the best way to do it …
