Municipality of Amstelveen: registering a stillborn baby

• A stillbirth certificate (‘_akte van geboorte (levenloos)_’) must be drawn up by the civil registry. This can only be done by the municipality where your child was born. If that was Amstelveen, you can have the certificate drawn up at the same time as the registration in the BRP. 
• If your child was not born in Amstelveen, you must bring the stillbirth certificate with you to your appointment at the town hall. 
• It is not mandatory to have your child included in your personal data. You decide for yourself whether you wish to do this. 
• You can only submit a request to add your child to your own personal data. If the other parent also wishes to do this, they must submit a personal request at the town hall.

• A valid passport or ID card. 
• (Optional): Your marriage booklet if you wish to have your child included in it.  
• If your child was not born in Amstelveen: the stillbirth certificate.

There are no costs associated with registering a stillborn child in the BRP.

As soon as the registration has been processed, a confirmation will be sent to your address. You will also see your child’s details when you log in to MijnOverheid. The registration is not passed on to other agencies that use the BRP.
