How to Watch Hulu in the Netherlands

Hulu restricts its own streaming service to the US. To watch from the Netherlands, you need a US connection, but Hulu can still block a VPN address if it comes from a data centre.

With USip, your phone or computer uses a home internet line with a residential US IP address. If you are watching on a compatible TV, follow the USip Smart DNS setup for that device.

For a new Hulu plan, open hulu.com/welcome, choose Sign up for only Hulu and check the signup and payment steps. Already subscribed? Log in with MyDisney, select an episode and press Play.

Can I watch Futurama with Dutch Disney+?

You can watch some Hulu shows in the Netherlands with Disney+ Netherlands. For Futurama, check the season list on the Dutch page before paying for a US plan. Hulu’s separate service follows its US viewing rules.

Does Disney+ have the same Hulu shows in the Netherlands and in the US?

The Dutch Disney+ catalogue lists 14 seasons of Futurama. For Abbott Elementary, it lists five seasons, while the US guide features season six. Compare each show on its own.

Before you watch Hulu in the Netherlands

  • Account. Your US connection is one part of setup. Hulu also has US location, account and household requirements. Read Hulu’s location rules.
  • Payment. Check how you will pay for Hulu. For a card, Hulu asks for a US-issued card with the bank’s billing ZIP. Compare the payment options.
  • Device. The Dutch playback test used an iPad Air. For a TV, check the Hulu app for the exact model, then follow the Smart DNS instructions.

How to get from the first screen to your show

  1. Find your show. Want a particular Futurama episode? Look in the Dutch local catalogue and open its season before trying Hulu.
  2. Check the Hulu plan. Which plan includes the programme? Read its US location rules and choose a payment method you can use. Hulu + Live TV has its own home location checks.
  3. Connect your device. Keep your phone or computer connected with the USip profile in OpenVPN Connect. For the TV app, follow the Smart DNS guide.
  4. Sign up or log in. New here? Start at hulu.com/welcome for Hulu on its own. Returning viewers can log in with MyDisney.

How to sign up and pay for Hulu in the Netherlands

Check Hulu’s plan prices in US dollars. The USip plans cover the connection separately. A Dutch card can have a 16-digit number and still be issued in the Netherlands.

If Futurama is in your Dutch plan, use that account. Paying USip for a connection does not pay for a second streaming subscription.

Card or PayPal

  1. Open hulu.com/welcome in the browser. Select Sign up for only Hulu below the bundles, or go to Hulu’s plan picker and choose a plan under Base Plans.
  2. Enter your email in the MyDisney form. Sign in with an existing password or continue to create an account.
  3. For the card option, use a US-issued card. Copy the billing ZIP from your bank records. Choose PayPal only if it appears at checkout.
  4. On the last screen, review the amount due today and what Hulu will charge on renewal.

Hulu gift card

  1. Open the gift-card terms. Check your plan and account type before paying for a gift card.
  2. In the browser, open Hulu’s gift-card page. Enter the code and follow the steps for your email.
  3. Once the code is accepted, check the credit in your account and see that your plan is active.

If a partner bills your subscription, check with that partner before buying a gift card.

Does Hulu.com show Disney+ bundles?

The Hulu-only option sits below the bundles on hulu.com/welcome. Choose Sign up for only Hulu. If it is missing, try Hulu’s plan picker and look for Base Plans.

What if Hulu won’t play?

I see a Disney+ bundle page

For an existing subscription, log in directly in a browser. For a new Hulu-only plan, use hulu.com/welcome and look for Sign up for only Hulu.

The card or billing ZIP was declined

Enter the billing ZIP recorded by the US card issuer. If the card came from a local bank, read Hulu’s payment requirements before retrying.

Hulu shows a location or proxy error

If it happens on a TV, check the current home IP in your USip account. On a phone or computer, check that USip is connected there. Send the message and device name to USip Support if the error remains.

I can’t find my show

Check the exact season in the Dutch catalogue. Futurama and Abbott Elementary are both listed, but the local and US season lists do not always match. Check your local options.

I want to cancel

Use the provider on your receipt to cancel Hulu. Use the USip account for the connection. Uninstalling the TV app does not cancel a subscription.

Hulu works on my phone but not on my TV

Check the TV model for the Hulu app, then make sure USip has the current public IP for your home. If Smart DNS cuts the internet connection, restore the previous DNS settings. Open the Smart DNS guide.

Hulu + Live TV asks for my Home network

For live channels on the TV, Hulu checks your US Home network. A successful test of an on-demand episode covers only that episode. Check Hulu’s Home network rules.

Hulu in the Netherlands — common questions

Does the 16-digit number on my ABN AMRO debit card make it a US card?

That number identifies your card for payments. An IBAN identifies a bank account. A Dutch-issued debit Mastercard still has a Dutch issuer, while Hulu asks for a US-issued card for direct card payments.

How do I get a Hulu login for my phone?

Start at hulu.com/welcome if you qualify for Hulu and have a payment method it accepts. After signup, use that same MyDisney email in the app.

Does the trial unlock shows in the Hulu app?

The three-day trial gives you access to the connection. The Hulu app still needs a separate, active Hulu subscription.

Can I use Hulu + Live TV this way?

Even if an episode plays, live channels may have additional location checks. See Hulu’s Home network rules.

Ready for your next episode in the Netherlands?

Check the Dutch Disney+ listing for the season of Futurama you want. If you choose Hulu, follow the signup steps. If your Hulu plan is active, go straight to device setup.
