Applying for an affordable housing permit
Do you want to rent affordable, social housing? In some municipalities you need anaffordable housing permit (huisvestingsvergunning) for this. Check with your municipality whether this applies in your municipality. If necessary, apply to your municipality for the affordable housing permit.
Are you going to rent social housing from a housing corporation (woningbouwcorporatie)? Then in many municipalities you do not need an affordable housing permit, but in some you do. Check with your municipality.
The eligibility conditions for an affordable housing permit differ depending on the municipality. Eligibility criteria may stipulate that:
- you work or study in the municipality or region;
- you already live (or have lived) in the municipality or region;
- the property matches your income and the size of your family.
This is how it works for you
Here is some information from your municipality.
Housing permit
Are you going to rent independent accommodation at a basic monthly rent up to € 808,06? In that case you need a housing permit. Applications for a housing permit must be made online. No housing permit is required when you buy a house.
Take note! You can only apply for a housing permit if you live in the Netherlands and are registered at a municipality.
