Address Verification

You can request an address investigation from the municipality in the following cases:

  • Someone is registered at your address but does not live there.
  • Someone has a mailing address at your address, and you can no longer reach that person.
  • Someone has a mailing address at your address, and you want to revoke your permission for that mailing address.

How does it work?

You can request an address verification if you are the owner, tenant, or co-resident of the residence. You can also withdraw your request for an address verification.

What do I need?

  • Your valid ID.
  • Proof that you are the owner or tenant of the property, such as a purchase agreement or lease.
  • Do you know who this person is? If so, please provide that person's name, date of birth, and phone number.

How long does it take?

  • An address investigation takes up to 12 weeks.
  • You will be notified of the results of the examination.
  • Following the investigation, the municipality may remove someone from the registry or register them at a new address.

Additional Information

Improving the quality of address data (in the BRP) and combating address-related fraud are important. That is why the government has established a special initiative for this purpose. Various organizations are collaborating on this to ensure that address quality remains consistently high. You can read all about it on the National Address Quality Initiative website.
