Municipality of Moerdijk: applying for a Verklaring Omtrent het Gedrag (VOG)

Please note: you can apply for a VOG (certificate of conduct) only if you live in the Netherlands and are registered with a municipality.

A VOG is a snapshot and has no fixed period of validity. Depending on the purpose for which the VOG is applied for, a validity period of 3, 6, 9 or 12 months is used in practice.

Free VOG for Volunteers

A larger group of volunteers can claim a free VOG. In addition to volunteers who work with children, volunteers who work with people with an intellectual disability can also receive a free VOG. It is then possible to complete the application without payment. You must then request the application digitally from the Justis Service .
If you apply for the VOG from the municipality, it will no longer be eligible for reimbursement.

Not registered with a municipality in the Netherlands

Are you not registered in the Municipal Personal Records Database (BRP)? For example, because you live abroad or temporarily work in the Netherlands. Then you must submit your VOG application directly to Justis .

For more information, go to our website on Verklaring Omtrent het Gedrag (VOG) – Gemeente Moerdijk

Or contact the municipality at phone number (+31) 168 373 600, send an e-mail to info@moerdijk.nl

You will receive the VOG or the refusal within 4 weeks at the address you specify in the application.
