Bankruptcies in the Netherlands

View the official monthly figures from CBS (Statistics Netherlands) for businesses and institutions. For a specific business, consult the Central Insolvency Register maintained by De Rechtspraak. Statistics and individual insolvency notices are different sources and are not treated as equivalent here.

Bankruptcies according to CBS (Statistics Netherlands)

Number of bankruptcy orders made by courts each month, in the ‘Businesses and institutions’ category (excluding sole traders). This CBS (Statistics Netherlands) category also includes partnerships, such as VOFs and professional partnerships; it is not limited to legal entities. The figures are not adjusted for the number of court sitting days.

Bankruptcies at De Rechtspraak

The Central Insolvency Register contains official notices of bankruptcies, suspensions of payments and statutory debt restructuring proceedings. Search the original source by the legal entity's name or KVK (Dutch Chamber of Commerce) number and check the latest notice, insolvency number and court.

Automatic access to the CIR web service has not yet been set up on this website. We therefore do not display a list of individual bankruptcies or unverified company names here. This does not mean that there are no bankruptcies. We do not publicly publish personal case files.

Source and methodology

The figures shown come directly from CBS StatLine, table 82242NED. Missing values are not displayed as zero.
De Rechtspraak is the official source for individual insolvency notices; CBS (Statistics Netherlands) figures are aggregated statistics, not company case files.
Staatscourant, news websites and desk research can provide additional context. The PEP list is used for integrity checks, not to establish whether a bankruptcy has occurred; these sources have not been used for the CBS figures shown.
No match in the register does not guarantee creditworthiness. Always check the correct entity and up-to-date source information.
