You can submit a request via Digipoort. If you prefer, you can complete the Requesting the repayment of a sickness benefit overpayment form (‘Verzoek terugbetaling te veel betaalde Ziektewet-uitkering’) and email it to info.erzw@uwv.nl.

• your payroll tax number (‘loonheffingennummer’)
• your self-insured contributions code (‘sector en risicopremiegroep’)
• your employee’s name, citizen service number (‘BSN’) and date of birth

You can expect our assessment within 4 weeks of receiving your application. We may contact you for further information.
