Need a Dutch apartment partition drawing?

A Dutch splitsingstekening (apartment partition drawing) is a key legal and technical document when a building is split into apartment rights (appartementsrechten). Without a correct drawing, a notary typically cannot execute the deed, and registration with the Dutch Kadaster cannot proceed.

Aboss Bouwadvies – Architects & Structural Engineers delivers measured, notary-ready partition drawings aligned with Dutch practice, including clear distinction between private and common areas, plus a consistent m² overview. We also handle resplitting and m² corrections.

If you do not have usable base drawings, we can measure and reconstruct the underlying plans. See also NEN 2580 measuring.

What is a “splitsingstekening”?

A splitsingstekening is an official, scale-accurate drawing showing how a building is divided into apartment rights. It is an integral part of the notarial deed (splitsingsakte) and is used for the Kadaster registration process.

Typically shown on the drawing

  • Boundaries of each apartment right (private section)
  • Common areas (stairs, corridors, entrances, installations)
  • Storage units, attics, gardens, and external areas (if applicable)
  • Clear numbering aligned with the deed
  • A consistent m² overview per apartment right (especially for corrections/resplitting)

When do you need it?

You typically need a partition drawing whenever apartment rights are created, amended, or corrected. Without a valid drawing, a notary may not be able to complete the deed.

Sale / transfer

  • Selling an apartment
  • Selling a property with a new split
  • Completing the notary sale dossier

New split

  • Splitting a dwelling into multiple apartments
  • Mixed-use / commercial partitions
  • Legally defining private vs. common areas

Resplitting / corrections

  • Resplitting after layout changes
  • m² corrections (incorrect / outdated data)
  • Adding or changing storage/attic/garden allocations

For m² corrections, it is crucial to work from the existing deed/drawing and to keep the notarial numbering consistent.

Key requirements (notary & Kadaster practice)

Self-made or inaccurate drawings are often rejected because they are not scale-accurate or not legally readable. We deliver professional CAD drawings that are clear, consistent, and practical for notarial processing.

  • Scale-accurate (measured and drafted with professional CAD)
  • Clear separation between private and common areas
  • Unambiguous numbering per apartment right aligned with the deed
  • Consistent m² overview per right (incl. explanation where needed)
  • Alignment with existing deed/archives when resplitting
  • Suitable for notary, Kadaster, and the sale dossier

Our process – fast and correct

  1. Intake: review available drawings, deed references and (if applicable) the existing partition drawing.
  2. Measure & verify: confirm dimensions and surface areas (on-site if required).
  3. Draft the partition drawing: private/common areas, boundaries, numbering, and m² overview.
  4. Notary alignment (optional): to match the deed structure and processing requirements.
  5. Delivery: digital files ready for the notary and sale dossier.

Deliverables

  • Partition drawings per floor level
  • Overview drawing with numbering of apartment rights
  • m² overview per apartment right (incl. corrections if needed)
  • Clear private vs. common indication
  • Resplitting: changes implemented against existing deed/drawing

Also relevant: architectural plans and NEN 2580 measuring.

What we need from you

To produce the drawing efficiently and correctly, we usually ask for:

  • Address + municipality
  • Existing drawings (PDF/DWG) if available
  • Existing deed / old partition drawing (for resplitting or m² corrections)
  • Number of apartment rights and a short description of the intended change
  • Notary details (optional)

No drawings available? We can reconstruct the base plans through measurement and archive references.

Price indication

Indicative price: from €350 excl. VAT (depending on size, number of apartment rights and complexity).

For resplitting or m² correction we first review the existing deed/drawing so scope and pricing remain clear and transparent.

  • Clear communication and fast delivery
  • Optional coordination with your notary for smooth deed processing

FAQ

How is this different from regular floor plans?

Regular plans are architectural/construction drawings. A partition drawing is a legal document: it shows boundaries, private/common areas, and numbering aligned with the notarial deed.

Can you handle resplitting and m² corrections?

Yes. We start from the existing deed/drawing and implement changes while keeping boundaries and numbering consistent. For m² corrections we verify measurements and provide a coherent m² overview.

What if I do not have drawings?

We can measure the property and reconstruct the base plans. See NEN 2580 measuring.

How fast is delivery?

Delivery depends on the number of floors/apartment rights and how quickly deed references/archives are available. After intake we provide a concrete schedule.

Do you submit directly to Kadaster?

In most cases submission is handled via the notary as part of the deed. We deliver files in a format suitable for notarial processing and can coordinate with your notary on requirements.
