Requesting personal data

The municipality maintains personal data on all residents in the Basic Registration of Persons (BRP). The municipality needs this data when you get married, for example, or when your passport expires. If necessary, the municipality may also share your data with other government agencies, such as the tax authorities, the judiciary or the police. Or with organizations such as pension funds and housing corporations.

You can find out what information about you and your minor children is in the BRP by logging in to MijnOverheid.

What should I do?

Via MijnOverheid you can view your own data or that of your minor children:

  • Log in with your DigiD.
  • Then click on "Personal Information" at the top of the page. 
  • Under the headingBRP," you can view your information.
