Criminal record extracts
The criminal record and the register of criminal suspects contain information pertaining to those reasonably suspected or convicted of a crime.
Requests for criminal record extracts are made when seeking employment that involves contact with children in schools, daycare centres or facilities for the functionally impaired.
Police record extract via e-service
To use the e-service, you must have an e-mail address that you are willing to provide.
Do not use the e-service if:
- You have a protected identity.
- You are requesting an extract from another EU country.
- You are requesting an extract for checking your own data sent to your special post address or Poste Restante.
Instead, use the appropriate form.
Changed appearance of the extract
From November 13th 2024, extract for work in a school or preschool will include crimes against the Terrorist Crimes Act or the corresponding older law and the involvement of a minor in crime
This means that the extracts for employment in a school or a preschool, for employment working with functionally impaired children and for employment with children in non-school activities will look different. In the past, the extracts have referred to:
- School law (2010:800)
- Law (2010:479) regarding record checks off staff performing certain activities for functionally impaired children
- Law (2013:852) regarding record checks of persons working with children.
The extracts will now only refer to the relevant legislation.
