Application form and notes

Factsheet

Anyone who provides payment services in the Netherlands must either hold the appropriate authorisation issued by DNB or be excepted or exempted from such authorisation.

Published: 08 August 2016

DNB charges a fee for considering applications for authorisation.

The fee applies regardless of whether we grant or dismiss the application or the applicant withdraws the application

The amount of this one-off fee is EUR 6,800, as specified in the Financial Supervision Funding Act (Wet bekostiging financieel toezicht).

Fee for regular supervision
We also charge payment institutions an annual fee to cover the costs of our regular supervision.
