If you want an extract of the data, you must pay for it. Citizens and companies pay a fixed price for an extract. For more information, see the Dutch page: BRP extract.

• Companies such as law firms and notaries can also ask to see information stored in the BRP. In such cases, privacy is important. The Personal Data Protection Act applies in such cases and the municipality of Leiden also has an additional regulation for data in the BRP.
• The municipality supplies only standard personal data, such as a person’s name, date of birth, address, town or city and date of death, where relevant.
• The municipality does not supply the data of people who have requested confidentiality of personal data. However, the police, the Department of Justice and the tax authorities are always supplied with this data when they ask for it.
• Personal data cannot be supplied over the telephone.

Do you want to submit an application? Use the contact form or send a written request to the municipality, addressed to BRP/Burgerzaken.

Has your request for information in the BRP been rejected? Then you can file an appeal.
