Request overview of personal data delivered
What is it?
(Government) organizations can request data from you to the municipality. For example, for:
- pensions
- benefits
- rent supplement
- taxes
- court cases
If you want to know what data the municipality has supplied about you, you can request a summary of it. You can do this in the municipality where you live.
How does it work?
To give you a complete overview, the municipality not only consults its own systems. It also informs which national government organizations have viewed your data.
What to do?
You request the survey from the municipality where you live.
What do I need?
- If you are making the request in writing: a copy of your valid ID.
- If you are applying online: your DigiD.
How long does it take?
You will receive the summary within four weeks.
Additional information
The overview goes back a maximum of 20 years. That's how long the government must keep so-called "disclosures" according to the Basic Registration of Persons Act. However, this law only took effect on Jan. 6, 2014. Until then, the legal retention period was one year. Therefore, it is not always possible to retrieve all information from the past 20 years for you.
