There's nothing to say that you have to close any bank account you have in the UK, but for living in Amsterdam you'll probably find it more convenient to have a Dutch bank account, too. The Dutch make great use of their cash cards and bank cards and are very close to having a "cashless society" for most things these days. (Or so my Dutch friend tells me.)

You'll probably want a Dutch bank account simply for the convenience - but don't close your UK account.
Cheers,
Bev
