Good to Know

  • You can only request confidentiality for yourself and your minor children. If your child is of legal age, they must request confidentiality themselves.
  • The municipality is required to comply with your request within 4 weeks and may not impose any additional requirements. For example, the municipality may not limit the validity of such a request to a specific period, may not charge any fees, and may not ask you to provide a justification.

Terms and Conditions

Your personal data is included in the Basic Register of Persons (BRP). This includes information about your name, address, place of residence, marital status, and nationality. The municipality handles this information with the utmost care. The disclosure of this information to others is subject to strict rules.

  • In some cases, the municipality is required to provide information, such as to the Tax and Customs Administration, the Social Insurance Bank, and a notary.
  • When initiating a lawsuit, an attorney must be able to present an extract from the Basic Register of Persons (BRP). If you have requested confidentiality, the municipality will first ask for your permission. The municipality will then weigh the various interests involved.
  • You can only request or revoke confidentiality with the Municipality of Moerdijk if you live in Moerdijk.
  • If you move to another municipality, the confidentiality of your information will remain in effect. You do not need to submit a new request.
  • The request has no expiration date. The confidentiality agreement remains in effect until you revoke it.

You can ask the municipality not to disclose your information to:
