Municipality of Amstelveen: applying for a Verklaring Omtrent het Gedrag (VOG)
You can only apply for a Verklaring Omtrent het Gedrag (VOG; Certificate of Conduct) if you live in the Netherlands and are registered with a municipality.
Print the application form from the Justis, the Ministry of Justice and Security’s screening authority, and fill it in together with your employer. Hand the form in at the Town Hall – you will need to make an appointment (in Dutch) in advance for this. You must also take proof of identity with you, such as your passport or driving licence.
You pay a fee for this service. Please visit the municipality of Amstelveen website for more information.
You will receive the VOG or the refusal within 4 weeks at the address you specify in the application.
