Do you want to know if you have to submit a notification or if you need an all-in-one permit for physical aspects (omgevingsvergunning)? You can do an online permit check on the online service counter (omgevingsloket in Dutch).

  1. Go to Omgevingsloket online (the online environment service counter, in Dutch).
  2. Run a permit check to see if you need a permit or if you must submit a notification.
  3. If you need a permit, you can apply for it at once online on Omgevingsloket or send in a written application. Log in with DigiD (for individuals) or eHerkenning (for businesses).
  4. If you have to submit a notification, you can do so at once on Omgevingsloket. Log in with DigiD (for individeuals) or eHerkenning (for businesses).

The cost depends on which all-in-one permit for physical aspects you apply for. Note that you must pay even if your application is rejected, look at Legesverordening on www.officielebekendmakingen.nl.

The municipality needs 8 weeks to assess your application. Sometimes this takes 26 weeks; that is a extended procedure, for example if you want to do something that is not in the zoning plan. The municipality can extend the period once by 6 weeks.

Go to www.waddinxveen.nl/bezwaar. There you can read how you can object.

You can view the list of permit applications and decisions at www.officielebekendmakingen.nl.

Do you want to object? In this case, the following rules apply.

  • For a standard all-in-one permit for physical aspects (8 weeks), you can file an objection within 6 weeks of the decision being published. How to do this is stated in the published decisions.
  • Does it concern an extended all-in-one permit for physical aspects (26 weeks)? Then it is issued as a draft decision. You can submit your opinion within 6 weeks. After that, a final decision will be made. You can appeal to the district court within 6 weeks.

Good to know

You must not start work until you have obtained the permit. If you start before that, you may have to undo the work at your own expense.
