Zustimmung  KirstyMacC (X): a private individual's application... Not for a driving licence as I used to think....
1 Min.
  -> Yes, it usually called a "polizeiliches Führungszeugnis".
Zustimmung  Kim Metzger: I think we'd need to include "good".
2 Min.
  -> Yes, can't be wrong to include it.
Neutraler Kommentar  Kevin Pfeiffer (X): (What would such a thing be used for?)

Zustimmung  Ingrid Blank: agree with Kim
7 Min.
  -> Yes, I also think he is right. The adjective "good" should be included here.
Neutraler Kommentar  Wenjer Leuschel (X): Ein polizeiliches Führungszeugnis braucht man schon, aber "a certificate of good conduct FROM A PRIVATE PERSON" --- Hmm, was ist denn das?
22 Min.
  -> Ah, you are absolutely right. Of course, it should be BY a private person. Those pesky prepositions...
Zustimmung  writeaway: Werner is right-application BY a private person/individual
33 Min.
  -> Yes, it's BY, not FROM.
Zustimmung  Dr.G.MD (X): ....GOOD conduct BY a private person

  -> Yes, definitely "BY a private person"; "from" is ambiguous here.

individual's application for police clearance


Erklärung:
Romain's Dictionary of Legal and Commercial Terms gives "police clearance" as another option, although "certificate of (good) conduct" is also fine. I think "individual" is sufficient for "Privatperson" — also given in Romain, and putting it in front eliminates the ambiguity.

Antrag einer Privatperson auf Erteilung eines Führungszeugnisses
Perosnal Application for a Certificate Of Conduct


Erklärung:
During my ten years in Germany such a certificate was required in all kinds of situations and it didn't always reflect good behavior. You needed to have one (and to present it) no matter what it said. On ealways hoped that it would show good conduct, and if it did not, you could be sure of getting what you were seeking.
Consequently, I would definitely leave out the "good."

I think the \"persona\" take care of the \"private person,\" i.e., it shows that the application is not \"official,\" i.e., from an official agency.

I typed too quickly: Personal Application, not Perosnal.
