Certificate of Conduct (VOG)

Employers and other organisations can request a Certificate of Conduct: a Verklaring Omtrent Gedrag (VOG). The Justis-service of the Ministry of Security and Justice will decide whether you will be issued the VOG within 4 weeks.

Has your (future) employer applied for your VOG online? Then you can apply for the VOG online via the link you’ll receive by email.

Apply for a VOG at the town hall

Is your employer or client not using an online application? Or do you need the VOG for another reason? Then you can apply at the municipality yourself. This is not possible online, you’ll need to make an appointment for this.

Conditions

  • You are registered as a resident of the Municipality of Almere
  • You’re applying for the certificate at the request of an employer or client
  • You can demonstrate that a VOG is required with, for example, information from a website or a legal provision

What to bring along to your appointment

We will check your application form during your appointment. Everything must be filled in by the employer or client, including stamps and/or signatures. Otherwise you will not be able to submit your application. Are you applying for a VOG for someone else? Then make sure to bring along a fully completed authorisation form (pdf, 90 KB) with you. You will also need a copy of the proof of identity of the person who has authorised you.
