We are not a government. We work with them.
Buitenland Loket is a privately held company that builds technology to bridge the gap between government institutions and users living abroad. We are independent, and not affiliated with or endorsed by any government.
Important disclaimer
Buitenland Loket is a private company. We are not a government institution, embassy, consulate, or any other form of public authority. We do not represent, speak for, or act on behalf of any government. Information provided through our platform is for guidance purposes only and should not be considered official government advice. For official matters, always consult the relevant government institution directly.
Our mission
Living abroad comes with challenges. Navigating government procedures, understanding local regulations, finding trusted services, and staying informed about developments in both your home country and the country where you live.
We believe that technology can make this easier. Buitenland Loket exists to create a single, trusted platform where users abroad can find reliable information, receive important updates from government institutions, and access verified services, all in one place.
At the same time, we want to help government institutions reach and support their citizens abroad more effectively. Our platform gives embassies, consulates, and other institutions the tools to communicate directly, conduct research, and improve their services.
What we do
We build and operate a platform that connects government institutions with users living abroad, enabling direct communication, information sharing, and service delivery.
How we work with governments
Government institutions can use our platform to send messages, publish surveys, share updates, and access anonymized insights. We work alongside them, not for them.
Our independence
We are fully independent. Our platform is built and funded privately. No government has ownership, editorial control, or influence over our operations or the content we publish.
What we stand for
These values guide every decision we make, from product development to the partnerships we enter.
