Address investigation

Are people registered at your address who no longer live there, or do you keep receiving mail for former residents? Has someone registered a postal address at your address and you can no longer reach them? You can ask the municipal authority to initiate an address investigation. We will find out where these individuals live now and ask them to register their new address.

Results

  • after they submit a change of address;
  • when, after a thorough investigation, the municipal authority has deregistered them from your address.

An address investigation takes around 3 months on average.
