History[]
The Staatscourant (Government Gazette) was first published in 1814 under William I of the Netherlands.
Since July 1, 2009, the paper is no longer printed, as the amount of paid subscriptions had dropped to around 5000, stimulated by a European guideline on digitized government and enabled by the 'Wet elektronische bekendmaking' it is now published online at "officielebekendmakingen.nl" (official announcements) but retains its former name.
