Dutch qualifications

Whether or not you have to follow a professional experience depends on when you obtained your diploma

If you graduated before January 1, 2015, and want to register in the architects' register, you can be registered based on a diploma from a qualified Dutch (master's) program.

If you graduated after January 1, 2015 and want to register in the architects' register, you can also be registered based on a diploma from a qualified Dutch (master's) program, but you first must complete the mandatory professional Traineeship for registration, unless the program followed entitles you to an exemption.

Please Note
Your request for registration will only be processed once we have received a certified copy of your diploma by post. Alternatively, you can also show the original certificate in person by appointment at the Architects' Register

Upon receipt of the registration request and the required documents and once the fees have been paid, it takes approximately 3 to 4 weeks before the registration in the architects' register will be finalized. You will receive a confirmation. You will also receive login details, allowing you to download the Certificate of Registration from your personal digital environment and you will be visible in the public register on our website.

Registration fees and annual contribution

If you apply for registration and your diploma entitles you to register, you will receive an invoice by email for the registration fee and the annual contribution.

If registration takes place during the year, the annual contribution will be prorated accordingly. If you are registered under more than one title, you will pay the registration fee and annual contribution for each registration.
