If a DO should request instructions on how to assist the individual in completing
the form, advise the DO to have the individual answer the questions on the form and
present proof of identity (e.g., a passport, identity card, citizenship certificate
or driver's license with photograph). Once identity has been proven, the DO representative
should sign and date the form in the certification block and include the DO stamp
in the space labelled “seal.” The form should be returned to the individual for mailing to the appropriate German
agency.
