Available tools 4

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

car

car_by_plate

Looks up a Dutch-registered car by its number plate (kenteken) in the official RDW register: make, model, first registration, fuel, CO2 emission, catalogue price, empty weight, when the periodic inspection (APK) is due and whether it is insured. With a taxable income it also gives the company car tax (bijtelling) for 2026, including the electric-car rate locked for 60 months from first registration. Live data from RDW Open Data.

current

nl_current_facts

Current Dutch amounts that change every year, each with the period it applies to and its official source, so an answer does not rely on outdated knowledge. Topics: health_deductible (Healthcare deductible (eigen risico)), child_benefit (Child benefit (kinderbijslag)), passport_id_fees (Passport and identity card fees), ind_fees (IND application fees (residence permits and naturalisation)), rent_limits (Rent limits and maximum rent increases), minimum_wage (Minimum wage (wettelijk minimumloon)). Ask by topic, or with a short question. For income tax figures use the tax server's dutch_tax_figures tool.

monthly

monthly_budget_by_city

What is left each month in a Dutch city: net salary (2026 tax, optional 30% ruling and holiday allowance) minus a typical unregulated-sector rent for the home size in that city, the basic health insurance premium (less any healthcare allowance), an average energy bill and the municipal charges for a renter. Cities with their own figures: Amsterdam, Amstelveen, Haarlem, The Hague, Rotterdam, Utrecht, Eindhoven, Helmond, Leeuwarden, Zwolle; any other city uses the national average rent and leaves out municipal charges. Food, transport, internet and water board charges are not included.

rent

rent_points_check

For a rented independent home (zelfstandige woning: own front door, kitchen and toilet) in the Netherlands: from its points under the points system (woningwaarderingsstelsel, WWS), the rental sector (social up to 143 points, regulated mid-rent up to 186, free sector above), the legal maximum basic monthly rent (kale huur) for 2026, whether a current rent is above it, and the maximum yearly rent increase for that sector. The points come from the government's Huurprijscheck on huurcommissie.nl. Rooms (onzelfstandige woonruimte) use a different table and are not covered.
