Update NRR (Dutch Variety Register)

Great news! The previously reported technical issues with the NRR (Dutch Variety Register) have now been resolved. You can once again use the register as you are accustomed to. Unfortunately, the field "prolongation requested" is currently missing in the NRR. This will be fixed.

We sincerely thank you for your patience and understanding during the recovery period.

If you still have any questions or comments, please contact us via teamsupport@rasraad.nl
