German police certificate

[olafgypsy 0]

Does anyone know how you go about obtaining a police certificate from Munich, Germany while residing in Bogota, Colombia? My Colombian fiance spent a year in Germany and needs one, and we want to start gathering the paperwork right away as we have a feeling (having dealt with the German foreign representation before) that this could take some doing.

Go to the German Embassy... they can at the least put you into contact with the local PD or City Authorities that handle these requests.

Then again, she may have to go directly to the authorities in Germany. Good luck!

Here's some tips to help her fill it out http://www.muenchen.de/Rathaus/kvr/buergbu...s_hinweise.html

and here's the address it needs to be sent to http://www.muenchen.de/Rathaus/kvr/buergbu...is_kontakt.html

You don't have to go through the city of Munich to get the certificate but can order directly from the central register. Cities don't keep their own registers and don't issue these certificates - all they do is order the certificate from the same central register.

hi....I too needed a police certificate from Germany - though i reside in UK, when i looked yo the german embassy weblink on th einterent ( german embassy in uk) if possible to get a certificate by downloding a form - filling it in and sending with it proof of payment for the certificate you will alos need to have the form you downloaded notarised - i contacted my bank to have them send 13 Euros - i alos had to send proof that the bank had made the transaction - and the notarised form...remember though that the certificate will come back in German so you will need it translated. Please check German embassy in Bogota as the process may differ a little - Good Luck
