Despite the care with which the figures and previous publications have been compiled about all overnight accommodation establishments in the Netherlands, it has been noticed that the published figures for the reporting periods after March 2022 are incorrect due to a technical error.

Based on this research, Statistics Netherlands will publish improved figures for the statistics on all overnight accommodation establishments in the Netherlands on December 11. This concerns the months April 2022 to October 2023 and the associated quarters.
