Thank you for letting us know! We do not need the declaration of good conduct for your visa en residence permit application, but it is solely for your host family, just to check your criminal record. So your host family need it before we can apply for your visa, but only if your host family in the Netherlands would like to see this report before we apply. If they decide that they don’t want to wait for your record, then we can proceed.
So I have informed your host family, so they can make a decision what they would like to do. I will keep you informed!
