The Royal Netherlands Marechaussee is responsible for policing Dutch airports and military sites. If you need to report a crime that took place at one of these locations, you can do so online or in person.
If you have a citizen service number (BSN), you can apply for a DigiD at digid.nl/en. It is recommended to enable logging in with SMS verification as well. Using DigiD with SMS verification, you can report specific types of crime online, such as:
- damage to property
- failing to stop after an accident
- theft
The online reporting forms are available in Dutch only and can be accessed here. If you do not understand Dutch and do not have someone to assist you with completing the form, please visit a Marechaussee location to report the crime.
All other crimes must be reported at a Marechaussee location. Ensure you bring your passport or another identification document.
If you are not in the Netherlands
If you have already left the Netherlands, we are unable to assist you directly. Please report the crime to your local police. If necessary, they can contact the Royal Netherlands Marechaussee for assistance.
Making a false report
Be aware that submitting a false report is a criminal offence.
