What is BKR and how does it affect borrowing?

BKR (Bureau Krediet Registratie) is the Dutch credit registration agency that records your loans and repayment behaviour. Lenders check your BKR record for every mortgage or loan, so a clean record improves your chances while a negative registration can limit or block borrowing. Most consumer credit in the Netherlands is registered there.
