The Municipal Database (Personal Records) Act was recently replaced by the Persons Database Act. Parties such as insurance companies and pension funds can now request personal records from any municipality, regardless of the applicant and relevant person's location.

In order to enable the government to perform its public duties, the adequate registration of personal records is necessary. The Persons Database Act (Act) is the new legal framework for the personal records database (Database). The Act aims to adapt to new developments, such as improving the quality of registrations, modernising the technical infrastructure of the Database and reducing administrative burdens. Furthermore, the Act aspires to offer citizens better services by the authorities.
