Municipal passport counters in the Netherlands

For a first appointment or renewal, bring your valid residence permit, existing alien’s passport if held, and a compliant photo no older than six months; proof of the photo date may be requested. Under-18s need consent from their legal guardians and copies of their identity documents. Give consent online with DigiD (the Dutch digital ID for government websites) before the appointment, or bring the paper form with signatures matching the accompanying identity documents. Follow the additional checklist in the municipal notification.

Bring all passports and identity cards you hold, including expired ones, a compliant photograph taken within six months and a payment card. If parental responsibility was determined by a court, bring an extract from the parental-responsibility register (gezagsregister). Consent from those with parental responsibility is required for passport applicants under 18 and identity-card applicants under 12. Submit digital consent at least two working days before an identity-card appointment. If consent is required and you cannot use DigiD (the Dutch digital ID for government websites), collect the consent form at Burgerzaken and bring it completed; the signature must match the signature on the consenting person’s identity document.
