Applying for Dutch civil status records from outside the Netherlands
If you live outside the Netherlands and require a Dutch civil status record – for example, a birth, adoption, marriage, divorce or death certificate, or certificate of registered partnership – you can apply for an official copy or an extract from the municipality where the document was drawn up. How you do this varies from municipality to municipality.
Attention:
The document will often need to be legalised if you wish to use it outside the Netherlands.
