personenaanduiding

A personenaanduiding is a term used in Dutch law to refer to the identification of a person. It is a broad concept that encompasses various forms of identification, including names, addresses, and other personal identifiers. In legal contexts, a personenaanduiding is crucial for establishing the identity of individuals involved in legal proceedings, such as plaintiffs, defendants, and witnesses.

The term is defined in the Dutch Civil Code (Burgerlijk Wetboek) and is used to ensure that all parties in a legal process can be accurately identified. This is important for the fairness and transparency of legal proceedings, as it allows for the proper documentation and tracking of all relevant parties.

A personenaanduiding can include a person's full name, a nickname, or any other name by which the person is known. It can also include an address, such as a street address or a post office box. In some cases, a personenaanduiding may include additional identifiers, such as a date of birth or a social security number, to further ensure accuracy.

In international contexts, the concept of a personenaanduiding is often translated into other languages. For example, in English, it might be referred to as a "personal identifier" or "individual identifier." The principles underlying a personenaanduiding remain consistent across different legal systems, emphasizing the importance of accurate identification in legal processes.
