The Bibob Act

Your application will be assessed in accordance with the Bibob Act. This Act allows the local authority to refuse a licence if there are indications that there is a serious risk that the licence will be used (in part) to commit criminal offences. To undergo the assessment under the Bibob Act, please complete a separate application form. You will receive this form from the local authority, and it can also be found on the BIBO page.
