House Numbering

Houses and business premises get an address with a house number from the municipality. Often stand and berths are also given an address. All addresses are recorded in the Basic Registration of Addresses and Buildings.

The municipality cannot just use or change house numbers. If your house number is incorrect, you can report it to the municipality.

Do you want to build a new building or split a property? If so, you need an environmental permit to do so.

The municipality of Heerlen has outsourced the implementation of the BAG to the BAG/GEO department of the data house in Landgraaf.

The Requirements To request a change of address or house number in the Basic Registration of Addresses and Buildings, you must:

• The municipality has granted a building permit (environmental permit).
• The council has determined that a mistake was made.
