Get your Dutch police certificate
for a Green Card application.
If your Green Card or US immigrant visa case asks for a police certificate from the Netherlands, the Dutch document usually meant is the VOG. I help you arrange the Dutch document and the next steps needed for your US immigration file.
Dutch VOG for your Green Card file
Why your Green Card case may require a Dutch police certificate
A Green Card or immigrant visa file can require police certificates connected to countries where you have lived. If the Netherlands is one of them, you may need to obtain the Dutch VOG for your US case.
Police certificate requested
Your US case instructions may specifically ask you to provide a police certificate from the Netherlands.
You no longer live in the Netherlands
Living abroad does not necessarily remove the Dutch document requirement. A previous period of residence in the Netherlands can still make the Dutch certificate relevant to your file.
Police certificate means Dutch VOG
The US wording can be confusing: the document you are looking for in the Netherlands is generally called the Verklaring Omtrent het Gedrag (VOG).

Frequently asked questions
Is a VOG the same as a Dutch police certificate?
In the Netherlands, the relevant conduct certificate is generally the Verklaring Omtrent het Gedrag (VOG). US immigration instructions may describe the required document as a police certificate.
Can Apostille Assist help with the VOG application?
Yes. The service is designed for people who need to deal with the Dutch document side from abroad as well as applicants who are currently in the Netherlands.
Does a Dutch police certificate for Green Card always need an apostille?
Not automatically. Follow the document instruction for your specific US immigration case. If an apostille is required, I can arrange it on the Dutch document.
Can you send the completed Dutch VOG to the United States?
Yes. Once the required Dutch steps are complete, the physical document can be sent to you, your immigration lawyer or another address you provide in the United States.
What if a translation is also required?
Send the requested language and certification instruction. The translation can then be arranged in the appropriate order.
Need Dutch police certificate for a Green Card?
Send the police certificate requirement from your Green Card case and start the Dutch VOG process from abroad or within the Netherlands.
