Municipality of Hoorn: registering a stillborn baby

If your child was born stillless, you can register your child in the Municipal Personal Records Database (BRP). It does not matter after how many weeks of pregnancy your baby was born. It does also not matter how long ago the birth took place.

  • You live in the municipality of Hoorn
  • A birth certificate (lifeless) must be drawn up. Do you no longer know whether a birth certificate was drawn up? Then contact the municipality where the child was born stillless.
  • Each parent must make a request for himself. Permission from the other parent is not required.

Online

  • DigiD
  • the birth certificate (inanimate)

Appointment at City Hall

  • A valid ID
  • the birth certificate (inanimate)

If your child was stillborn, make an appointment with the municipality where your child was born to register the birth.

You can also request an extract from BRP (birth certificate). More information can be found on the request written proof of this.

You pay a fee for an afschrift (official copy) of the certificate. For more information, contact the municipality.

That differs per situation. In some cases, your child will be placed in the BRP immediately during the appointment. For example, if you bring a birth certificate (lifeless) to the appointment.
