So I couldn't wrap my head around the final answer, so I have a Masters degree in Architecture from Japan and I am willing to apply for jobs in the Netherlands. My question is assume I will be working for an international design studio like OMA or MVRDV, do I need to have Architects’ Register to work as an employee for them ?

I'd focus on getting hired there before even considering registration ;)
But to answer your question, no you don't need to be registered to get hired, mostly only the natives are registered and they run the Dutch projects most of the times.

I asked the question to be able to get hired if it had been mandatory to get the registration I wouldn't bother to apply and think of another country to apply for ... anyways thanks for the answer.

So, nope not mandatory at all. It might be useful further down the road when you'd like to run projects, face clients or deal with municipalities etc.
