    If you have a residence permit for an European country, it does not mean you have the nationality of the specific country. The deadline is depending on your current nationality. For example: if you have a Mexican nationality and hold a Dutch residence permit, your nationality is Mexican (not Dutch), and you should check the non-EEA application deadlines.
