Abortion in the Netherlands

Family doctors in the Netherlands can prescribe the abortion pill until 9 weeks of pregnancy. Please contact your family doctor (general physician) to receive a prescription. If you do not have a family doctor, you can try to make an appointment with a GP practice in your area. Everyone in the Netherlands, including people without documents/insurance, are legally entitled to healthcare from family doctors.
