Covenant The Netherlands Bar (NOvA)

Lawyers may encounter intimidation, violence, or other threatening situations because of their profession. In the event of such a foreseeable threat, an attorney at law can shield the visiting address of their company or legal entity (with the exception of a bv or nv) in the Business Register. A condition for this is that the professional association of lawyers has agreed upon shielding criteria with KVK. The Nederlandse orde van advocaten (NOvA, Netherlands Bar Association) and KVK have set out these agreements in a covenant.
