Welcome to Peel en Maas

Word of the mayor

Welcome to the municipality of Peel and Maas. I hope the work you do and your housing live up to expectations. Besides working and living well, I also wish you to spend your leisure time in a pleasant way in the municipality of Peel and Maas. With relaxation, sports and recreation. In this app you will find information to help you find your way around our municipality and the Netherlands.

As a resident of the European Union you have rights, but also obligations. This app tells you more about them. If you wish to stay in the Netherlands for more than four months, you will have to register with the municipality. From that moment on, you are a (temporary) resident of our municipality. We are happy to help you on your way. You will find information and advice in this app.

You need the municipality for important events and documents: getting married, having children, passports and driving licences. You also need to report unpleasant matters such as death or theft of travel documents to the municipality. Where possible and necessary, we support you in this. Learning the Dutch language, living in a house of your own, a school for the children, dealing with neighbours and paying taxes are important issues to us. I hope you will have a pleasant stay in our beautiful municipality.

Bob Vostermans, Mayor
