Can I already apply for the residence permit or do I have to wait 5 years?PaperPusher wrote:If you have only lived in the UK for just over six months I cannot see how you would be entitled to a British passport unless you are already a British citizen. Go to the Dutch embassy to renew your passport.

Why do you want British Citizenship? Like other have mentioned, you have every right to live here as a Dutch citizen. Just renew your passport at the embassy. Also, if you choose to take up British Citizenship, you will be required to renounce you Dutch Citizenship. Dutch law doesn't allow you to have dual nationality. There are a few exceptions, but it doesn't sound like you were qualify (only to take up the nationality of your spouse or if you were born or spent most of your childhood in that country). Also, your spouse can apply for Dutch citizenship even if you reside abroad, once you've been married for at least 3 years, but a language and citizenship test must be passed.sacha001 wrote:The one which gives me the right to stay in Uk even after my dutch passport expires.
