Setback for a poultry / animal house from the boundary — Netherlands

Netherlands

The applicable zone depends on the municipal environmental plan, provincial rules and water-board rules. Check the official Rules on the Map for this property before fixing the distance.

Distances and rules

A building for poultry or small animals is kept further from the boundary than an ordinary shed, for sanitary reasons — odour, runoff and noise should not disturb the neighbour. The exact setback depends on the country.

Official property check Open Rules on the Map and run the Permit Check for the planned activity Netherlands — Environment and Planning Portal: rules and permit check

Important limitation

This is a planning aid, not a legal opinion. Before construction, check the local land-use rules, easements, the network/utility operator’s requirements and neighbour buildings.
