Why check your rent in Amsterdam?

Demand for housing in Amsterdam is high. This can make it difficult to assess whether the requested rent fits the characteristics of the home. An indicative check makes those characteristics clearer.

Location alone does not determine the points calculation. The area, energy label, WOZ value, facilities and contract date can also be important.

If you live in Amsterdam and your landlord does not follow the rent rules, you can report this to the municipality. The municipality also refers tenants to !WOON for free individual support.

Start with facts and evidence

First collect only the documents relevant to your question: the rental contract and appendices, proof of payment, relevant correspondence and housing details such as the energy label, WOZ value or measurements. Keep the original files and a copy of every message. Do not share an identity document, citizen service number or other sensitive documents in an initial request.

Start with a clear rent check

First check your base rent, home details, points estimate and possible difference. You can then choose whether to keep only the result or download a document.
