Taxi Licence Appeals

Taxi licence appeals are a specialised area of the law. With security guards in the Netherlands it is not unusual for issues to come up with regard to licensing. Taxi licence appeals appeals can be complex and in order to have the highest chance of success you need to be discussing your case with a dedicated lawyer.

The KIWA has wide reaching authority to revoke and refuse licences. Often you will have a right to object directly to the Licensing committee (Human Environment and Transport Inspectorate (ILENT)). There is a right of appeal to the Trade and Industry Appeals Tribunal if the licensing committee (Human Environment and Transport Inspectorate) uphold the refusal.

On occasion these powers can be misapplied and these issues can be successfully appealed at the Trade and Industry Appeals Tribunal (CBB). Getting the correct advice and intervening at the earliest possible stage can be critical. On occasion, through careful negotiation and mediation a licensing authority may be persuaded to reinstate a taxi licence without going to the Trade and Industry Appeals Tribunal (CBB). This of course would depend on the facts of the individual case.
