How to fill in this form

Address

The following rules apply to an address filled in on Form 28:

• The address must be listed in the Basic Registration of Addresses and Buildings (BAG).
• A residential address must also match the Personal Records Database (BRP) of the Dutch municipalities.

Use the BAG Viewer (in Dutch) to check whether the address of the company or legal person is correct in the BAG. This includes the street name, house number, addition (such as 24a or 24b), or designated use (such as retail premises). If something is incorrect, you can report the error on the BAG Viewer website.

The Business Register is linked to the Personal Records Database (BRP) of the Dutch municipalities. If a residential address is not listed in the BRP or is incorrect, you must first have it corrected by your municipality. 

If the address in the BAG or BRP is not correct, KVK cannot enter the cooperative or mutual insurance association’s registration in the Business Register. Only send form 28 to KVK once the correct details are listed in the BAG and BRP.

Dates

The dates you enter on this form may also be in the future. KVK will ensure that they are visible in the Business Register from that moment on.
