Private Investigator Netherlands
Licensed corporate & legal investigation, nationwide
When a Dutch matter needs facts your legal team can rely on, a fraud in the supply chain, a director whose background does not add up, a claim that looks staged, a boardroom you suspect is not secure, you need a licensed local investigator, not an intermediary. SAJ Recherche is a private investigation agency licensed by the Dutch Ministry of Justice (POB 8779), based in Amsterdam and working across the Netherlands for foreign corporates, Dutch companies, law firms and insurers. We run under NDA, coordinate with your counsel, and deliver evidence that holds up under Dutch scrutiny.
What a licensed private investigator in the Netherlands can do for your organisation
Corporate fraud investigation
Invoice fraud, procurement kickbacks, embezzlement, false expense claims, phantom vendors. We map the facts objectively across Dutch entities and report in a form your legal team, insurer or auditor can use.
Due diligence on Dutch counterparties
Verify a Dutch company, director or shareholder before you invest, acquire, partner or extend credit. UBO, KvK, sanctions, litigation history, adverse media, and where legally possible, discreet field verification.
Pre-employment & integrity screening
Structured background checks on candidates for senior, financial or safety-critical roles anywhere in the Netherlands, within Dutch privacy law and the GDPR. Reports lawyers and HR directors can rely on.
Insurance & liability investigation
Suspected claim fraud, exaggerated injury, fictitious loss, staged incidents. Discreet observation and factual reporting for insurers, brokers and self-insured corporates operating in the Netherlands.
Litigation support & evidence gathering
For law firms preparing Dutch or cross-border proceedings: fact-finding, witness location, asset tracing, surveillance to establish behaviour, and reports drafted to hold up in Dutch court.
TSCM sweeps for boardrooms & directors
Technical surveillance countermeasures for boardrooms, executive offices, law-firm meeting rooms and directors' residences anywhere in the Netherlands. Full inspection, findings secured and reported.
Under NDA. Discreet from the first call.
A confidential scoping session, in English, wherever your legal team sits.

Foreign corporate
You need a Dutch investigator, not a translator

Why corporate clients choose SAJ
Licensed, discreet, and built for regulated matters
Corporate investigations survive or fail on defensibility. A leaked source, an unlawful method, a report that will not hold up in a Dutch civil chamber, any of these can turn a legitimate matter against the client. We work within the Wpbr, Dutch privacy law and the GDPR, coordinate with counsel from the start, and document methods and sources so the report withstands challenge.
We handle every step in English, run under NDA, and never ask a client to authorise anything unlawful.

Words cannot express how professional and excellent John's work was. We hired him to prove a case of infidelity, and his expertise exceeded all our expectations. Everything was done with precision and speed. From the moment we contacted him he gave us the confidence we needed during a very difficult time for our family. He is a true professional and a wonderful person. Thank you John for your dedication to our case. Our family is eternally grateful.
