Request travel advisories

The travel advisories at www.nederlandwereldwijd.nl help travellers prepare for potential safety and security risks during a stay abroad.

You can request a set of 25 travel advisories via: https://opendata.nederlandwereldwijd.nl/v1/sources/nederlandwereldwijd/infotypes/traveladvice
You can use specific parameters to refine your search results. See Open data filteren (in Dutch) at rijksoverheid.nl.
Search in the list for the travel advisory you require. The ‘dataurl’ field in the travel advisory in question contains the full path. Use this to view the content of the advisory.
