Please bring the following items with you to your appointment:

  • If you have them: original legalised and translated foreign documents about yourself and your children, such as birth, marriage or divorce certificates. If the documents were created by the issuing authority in French, German or English, they will be accepted in most cases. If in doubt, the municipality can ask for a Dutch translation
  • If you come from Aruba, Bonaire, Curaçao, Saba, Sint Eustatius or Sint Maarten: a certificate of deregistration
  • If you come from outside the EU/EEA or Switzerland and do not have Dutch nationality: proof of lawful residence from the IND

Documents from certain countries must be legalised or have an apostille stamp. For more information, see the Dutch Government’s website.

You must be lawfully resident in the Netherlands. That means that you either
  • have the Dutch nationality or
  • have the nationality of an EU/EEA country or Switzerland or
  • have a valid residence permit.

Are you staying in the Netherlands for less than 4 months but do you need a Citizen Service Number (BSN)? Please check the information at  Register Niet Ingezetenen (RNI).
