Claim procedures
The municipality sends the declaration of the birth of your child to the SVB (Social Insurance Bank). About 2 to 4 weeks after this, you receive al letter from the SVB. You can then apply for child support on the SVB website. For this you need a DigiD. You can also ask to send a paper application form to the SVB. For consecutive children you don’t need to do anything. If the child is born or lives outside the Netherlands, you need to contact the SVB yourself. This is also the case when you failed to declare the birth of your child within one month after it is born.
