Hi Paul, welcome to the Forum. Your English is just fine. SA1911a1 is correct, do a search in eBay for SKS stripper clips and several pages of results will show up. Post up some pics of your new SKS when you get a chance. I wasn't aware that civilians in Holland were allowed to own such a firearm, that's great! 
Are there many ranges in Holland? I've only been to Amsterdam & Arnhem.

Re: Simonov SKS - 45
Don't get NC Star clips. The ones I bought don't fit the slot without filing, adjusting. They still don't work as good as military. There was a lot of Yugo ammo available packed on clips if you can find any. Try Wikiarms online search engine.

BXN clips are the way to go
Re: Simonov SKS - 45
I have beside me a big ol' bag of stripper clips that I ordered from Sarco in Pennsylvania. Think it's e-sarcoinc.com or something like. Maybe without the dash. Don't recall what I gave for them, but I ordered a bunch so knowing me they must have been cheap. 
They are not the NCStar clips, which I agree are a pain in the arse. Appear to be parkerized. Makes them less than slick, but just take a couple of empty cases & run them back & forth in the clip a few times & they're good to go. No burrs or rough spots needing a Dremel tool like the NCStar clips-- just a quick breaking-in. Enjoy your new SKS-45. Lucked into one myself last year & I'm in love.
