On 1 July 2020, the new Dutch Donor Act with an Active Donor Registration system will become effective. Consequent changes in clinical practice and matters related to dealing with a patient's family are described by means of an illustrative case history of a 53-year-old fictive female patient. Furthermore, the implications of an earlier change in the Dutch Donor Act in 2013 are discussed.
