The Museum Card (Dutch: "Museumkaart") is a personal card that allows free entrance -after subscription- to about 400 museums in the Netherlands.[2] The card is valid for one year.[3] In 2013, there were more than 900,000 Museum Cardholders. In 2011, over 23% of the visitors to the affiliated museums were Museum Cardholders (4.3 million to 18.1 million).
As of 2019, the card costs €64.90 (including €4.95 administrative expenses) for adults, A discounted card is available for youth under age 19, costing €32.45 (including €4.95 administrative expenses).[4]
Conditions
The Museum card is available at many of the larger participating museums, or can also be purchased online. Museumkaart holders may register to receive a monthly digital magazine.
Buying the card online is only possible if the user has a Dutch IBAN and a registered Dutch address. If buying the card from a museum, a temporary card, valid for 31 days or 5 visits, is issued. A confirmation photo must then be uploaded online to receive the 1-year card.
Although most museums offer free entry to Museumkaart holders, some museums charge a small fee. Additionally, some museums charge an additional fee for special exhibitions, but not for the general collection.
Mission
The Museum card is issued by the Dutch Museum Association. The card aims to promote repeat visits and to increase the bond between museums and their visitors. The operation of the card is conducted by the Museum Card Foundation (SMK), which also organizes Museum Weekend, and supports the marketing of affiliated museums. The income of the foundation benefits the participating museums. Affiliated museums are recognized in the Dutch Museum Register and are members of the Dutch Museum Association.
