When moving to a foreign country I know of many people who have decided not to declare their foreign (United Kingdom) student debt. What might be the consequences for doing so and how might a provider legally go about finding about such debt? I'm interested in answers directly about the Netherlands or similar EU countries.

As with many questions, the answer is likely to depend on which country "abroad" is.– JustAnotherCoderCommented Sep 25, 2019 at 12:31

Worst case - you go to jail
Technically, obtaining a loan by lying is fraud in every jurisdiction I know about. If it turned out you were unable to pay and investigation showed you had lied, the lender might report you to the police who might charge you.
