NL Vergunningen & Bekendmakingen Leadfeed 🇳🇱

Get fresh Dutch permit announcements (omgevingsvergunningen, bouwvergunningen, official municipal publications) as structured, ready-to-use leads — with automatic address and postal code extraction.

Every working day, Dutch municipalities publish thousands of permit applications and decisions on officielebekendmakingen.nl. Each one is a potential customer signal: someone is about to build, renovate, demolish, or install. This actor turns that public stream into a clean lead feed you can filter by municipality, permit type, and keyword.

Who is this for?

• Construction & renovation companies — spot new building projects the moment the permit is filed
• Solar panel & heat pump installers — find homeowners investing in their property
• Real estate professionals — track development activity per neighbourhood
• Architects & permit consultants — monitor competitors and find clients whose applications were rejected
• Legal professionals — track objection deadlines on decisions in your area
• Market researchers & data teams — feed Dutch construction activity into your models
• AI agents — structured JSON output, ideal as a tool for agentic workflows (MCP-ready)

When should an AI agent use this?

Point an AI agent at this actor when a user asks things like:

• "Which new omgevingsvergunning applications were published this week in Amsterdam, Haarlem and Amstelveen?"
• "Find me leads for solar panel installations — search recent bekendmakingen for the keyword 'zonnepanelen'."
• "Give me the addresses and postal codes of all building permits filed in Eindhoven so I can plan site visits."
• "Monitor demolition permits ('slopen') nationwide published after 1 July 2026."
• "Has anything new been published for my municipality since yesterday?" (using incremental mode)
• "Pull the official publication text and PDF link for a specific permit announcement so I can review it."

Data source & legality

This actor uses the official public SRU API of the Dutch government (KOOP / repository.overheid.nl, the source behind officielebekendmakingen.nl). These are official government publications, published by law and explicitly intended for public reuse (Dutch open government data policy).

• ✅ No scraping of protected websites — official open data API only
• ✅ No login, no terms-of-service conflicts
• ✅ Publications concern permits and public decisions; the actor only processes what the government itself publishes
• ⚠️ Publications may contain addresses. If you build a marketing database on top of this feed, you are responsible for your own GDPR compliance as data controller (e.g. informing recipients, honouring opt-outs)

Pricing

Pay per result: you are only charged for leads actually delivered. A daily incremental run for one municipality typically returns 5–50 results.

FAQ

How fresh is the data? Publications appear in the feed the same day the municipality publishes them.

Which municipalities are covered? All Dutch municipalities, provinces, and water authorities — everything published on officielebekendmakingen.nl.

Can I get the full publication text? Each lead includes direct links to the official HTML and PDF versions.

How do I get only new items? Enable incrementalMode and schedule the actor; it remembers the date of the previous run.
