About Toine Beukering

Born 1958. Toine Beukering is a Dutch politician.

Antoine "Toine" Beukering (born 28 November 1958) is a Dutch retired military officer and politician who has served as a member of the Senate from 2025, having previously served between 2019 and 2023. He was originally affiliated with the Forum for Democracy (FvD) party, but switched to JA21.

Beukering served in the Royal Dutch Army and took part in peacekeeping operations in Burundi and the Ivory Coast. He first entered politics when he was elected to the Provincial Council of South Holland as a member of the FvD party and was subsequently appointed as a Senator.
