Municipal passport counters in the Netherlands

Booking and collection options, city by city

Passports are handled by the municipality where you are registered, and larger cities run more than one counter. Some counters let you walk in, others require a booking, and collection or delivery works differently too. Which office takes applications for an alien’s or refugee passport also depends on the city. Dutch citizens who live abroad can also use certain border municipalities.

    Bring a compliant colour photograph no older than six months and all Dutch travel documents, including expired ones. Under-18s need consent from every person with parental responsibility. Advance consent is valid for three months and can use DigiD (the Dutch digital ID for government websites) or the signed paper form; follow the ID requirements for that option. Ask Burgerzaken about an overseas parent unable to consent online. Payment is by debit card; arrange help beforehand if needed.
