Cash Out Credit on OV Chipkaart
and then
Spend Euros (Buy Stuff and Eat Stuff)
​
Try to get your credit from you OV Chipkaart. I found a comment that you can get your OV Chipkaart credit refund at a rail and transit service center.
The picture above is the closest place I could find at Schiphol Airport fitting that description.
We have a secondary option, I found an online form to get the credit.
​
Spend your Euros unless you plan on keeping or giving them as souvenirs. You might want to convert to coins if they are going to be souvenirs.
​
If you just want to cash in your Euros, find a GWK Travel Services Office. They are located on both sides of customs.
