Within the Netherlands all government arms are registered at the Hoge Raad van Adel in The Hague. This register thus includes provincial, municipal arms as well as the arms of water boards. During the early years of its existence (1813-1850) also arms of estates, castles, houses and similar could be registered. Only in 3 cases arms of an estate were granted after 1850 (the most recent in 2004). The Koffie Hag albums contained all arms in the register at the time of publication. The arms of the Netherlands East Indies and the personal arms are not registered. Only arms of Dutch nobility are registered. | Within the Netherlands all government arms are registered at the Hoge Raad van Adel in The Hague.

The albums were written and the images were drawn by Tiede van der Laars and his son Sytse Gerke van der Laars, who were well known heraldic artists at the time. All stamps show the signature S.G. van der Laars. Tiede van der Laars issued in 1913 a book ‘Wapens, Vlaggen en Zegels van Nederland', dealing mainly with the National and provincial arms. In 1933 the book was reprinted by Koffie Hag, with a small addition in the back, describing the publication of the stamp albums. Finally in 1989 the original 1913 book was reprinted with an additional coloured cover. | The albums were written and the images were drawn by Tiede van der Laars and his son Sytse Gerke van der Laars, who were well known heraldic artists at the time.
