Complaint Form

Using a standard complaint form, you can file a disciplinary complaint against a maritime pilot registered with the Dutch pilots corporation. You cannot use this form to file a complaint against a non-registered pilot, the Dutch pilots corporation itself, or a regional pilots corporation. It is important that you describe and explain in this form why you are not satisfied with the actions of said pilot. More information about disciplinary law and the disciplinary procedure can be found under “Disciplinary procedures”. Upon receipt of the written complaint by email (or mail), you will receive an acknowledgment of receipt from the secretary of the disciplinary board as soon as possible.
