Good Conduct Certificate from The Netherlands
- Thread starter Janaki Iyer

Hi again!
I received my ADR (Additional documentation request) to provide a "Certificate of Conduct" for the Netherlands (aka Verklaring Omtrent het Gedrag, VOG) yesterday after medical clearance, on the same day. I have 60 days to get it and upload the document.
I recommend to follow the IRCC instructions. Some applicants sometimes try to find a walkaround or are too impatient and don't follow the instructions. I know some cases where IRCC still asked for an addtional police certificate later on because the candidate did not follow the procedure. To be honest, I'm sure IRCC appreciate when applicants follow the rules and do what is said. You want IRCC on your side and PCC problems is a sensitive topic and quite common cause of rejection. You never know how strict the visa offer may be. Plus they give you time to get them.
It's all clearly stated on their website how to proceed for Netherlands police certificate or for any other country.

So if, like me, you receive your ADR to provide a Dutch police certificate, here is all the official info in English
on how to request a Dutch PCC, from the "Justis" website:

They even explain how to fill in the form.
Cheers,

Yep, yep. Just like IRCC says on their website. That's also how I did it
. You add a section about that in your Letter of Explanation.Yep, yep. Just like IRCC says on their website. That's also how I did it
Thank you!
I found the form online after AOR and asked my partner, who still lives in NL, to try it with the Gemeente.
She applied on Friday 21 July and got it on Thursday 27 July (both of which are NL time).
Since I was already in Canada, I had to authorize her to apply on my behalf. She did it on Tuesday 25 July and we'll see when I'll get mine.
Everyone will also need this form for the VOG.
Yes, this is also an option when someone has the possibility to authorize another person who currently lives in the Netherlands, indeed.
Please note that the link I gave also contains this authorization form, but in English
, in case someone can't speak Dutch.I got mine today. It took thus four days.Yes, this is also an option when someone has the possibility to authorize another person who currently lives in the Netherlands, indeed.

Hello,
I am not Dutch but it says explicitly on the IRCC website that the VOG does not requires translation : http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/security/police-cert/europe/netherlands.asp
The Certificate of Good Conduct is issued in Dutch with a portion translated in English at the bottom. It is not necessary to have it translated.
Oh wow hahaha well I could have found out about that one myself. But thanks a lot for the help!!

Hi,
Got an ADR for dutch PCC on 25th July, applied via email on 27th July and received at Dutch address on 8th August 2017. You can apply via email and send it to local dutch address who can collect it on your behalf. The procedure is straightforward and in case of any doubts call on the phone number provided on website. I spoke to a guy and got it shipped to Dutch address instead of Indian address mentioned in application.
