The Houthoff Dawn Raid App provides enterprises of legal information on (un)expected dawn raids by Dutch authorities.



Better safe than sorry. But if an authority visits your premises to inspect whether your company is compliant, it is good to be well prepared. This Houthoff Dawn Raid App provides a brief summary of your rights and obligations during a dawn raid and is intended to serve as a guide on how to act when receiving a visit from the different Dutch Authorities. You will find these instructions in the 'Authorities' section of the App. With our 'Direct Support' button, you can contact our Dawn Raid Team 24/7 for immediate legal support.



In the app you'll find information and guidelines about among other things:

1. What you could do and should know in advance



2. What to do when an investigation is about to happen



Authorities:



European Commission

ACM

Dutch DPA

Environment agency/Inspectorate SZW

Dutch Criminal Authorities

Dutch Healthcare Authority (NZa)

Health and Youth Care Inspectorate (IGJ)

Dutch Safety Board
