What is the correct police clearance certificate for Germany?

I am currently getting all the paperwork together for a visa application. For the police records we can get a standard police record or an extended one. However the extended version is only available if you are applying for a job that requires it or something. The state department website says just the normal one however we want to be as through as possible. For reference the country the police certificate is from is Germany. We would like the extended one because there was an incident that may be on the record but isn’t on the normal one. The documents are called ”Führungszeugnis“ and ”erweitertes führungszeugnis“.

The standard version is just fine. It's even in German and English language. So you do not need the "Erweitertes Führungszeugnis“. You can usually obtain it from your local city hall.
