Questions and instructions
Literal question
Which persons should be entered in the household list?
Every person is obligated to fill out records of all the persons belonging to his household in the household list. These persons must have their residence (main or secondary residence) registered with the police in the same residence.
When recording you should make sure that under no circumstances those household members that are not staying at the household on census day are forgotten, such as e.g. household members that are abroad for travel or business reasons, are at a training course or temporarily in the hospital, or those currently doing their military service. Household members that have obtained a secondary residence for professional, job training or education reasons should also be recorded.
Household members that are in jail should also be entered in this list.
Persons that were deceased after January 1, 1971 at 12am should be listed in this household list.
Children that were born after January 1, 1971 at 12am should not be listed in this household list.
Visitors should not be recorded.
