Document background
The Occupier's Waiver is a crucial document in Dutch property management and real estate practice, designed to manage risk and establish clear boundaries of liability between property owners/managers and occupiers. This document becomes necessary when temporary or permanent occupation of a property occurs, particularly in commercial, industrial, or mixed-use settings. The waiver must carefully balance the interests of all parties while remaining compliant with Dutch civil law, especially regarding liability limitations and duty of care obligations. It typically includes detailed property descriptions, specific rights being waived, remaining obligations, and any special conditions or requirements. The document must be structured to remain enforceable under Dutch law while providing adequate protection for property owners without unfairly disadvantaging occupiers.
