Municipality of Stichtse Vecht: deregistering from the municipality in the event of a long stay outside the Netherlands

• Let us know if you are staying abroad for longer than 8 months
• You must give notice at least 5 days before departure
• If someone continues to live at your address in Stichtse Vecht, all persons who do go abroad must visit the municipality in person by appointment. This also applies to minors.
• Make an appointment
• Bring a valid identity document
• You can only register online with DigiD if nobody is staying at your address.

How it works

If all persons of the address are moving abroad, you can let us know about moving abroad online or in person at the counter. Please let us know about moving for the following persons:

• yourself (as of 16 years of age)
• spouses or registered partners living together: for each other
• parent, guardian or caretaker: for their children under 16 years of age
• children older than 16: for their live-in parents
• the guardian: for a person under guardianship

Note: if you are cohabiting (i.e. not married or registered as a partner), then each must file the declaration for themselves.

If not all the occupants of the address are moving abroad, then you and everyone moving with you should make an appointment to visit the municipal office to report the move. Online declaration is not possible.

Proof of deregistration

Many countries require proof of deregistration. Ask for this when youregister your emigration. A proof of deregistration is required when you register your departure to Curaçao, Bonaire or St. Maarten. You will need this proof when registering there. After your emigration you can request this proof from a municipality with a Register Niet Ingezetenen (Non-residents Records Database). Visit Rijksoverheid.nl to see municipalities this applies to.
