Getting a BSN is mandatory for persons staying in the Netherlands for longer than 4 months. You should make an appointment at municipality [gemeente] within 5 days of your arrival. Previously, among other documents, you had to provide a tenancy agreement of a place allowing registration, but as of January 1 [2022], in case you are unable to find such residence, 'municipality is obliged to register you at a postal address'.
