ORIGINAL POSTER

Hello I need some help with the place of issue. 

I have a dutch passport which is issued in 's-gravenhage. But under the passport section 12 (authority, it says: "Burg. van 's-Gravenhage".

Do I feel in Burg. van 's-Gravenhage or only 's-Gravenhage?

Any dutch people here? I'm applying in jakarta.

Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user seeks clarification on what to list as the place of issue for their Dutch passport on a visa application. The comments clarify that 'Burg.' is an abbreviation for 'Burgemeester,' which means Mayor, and suggest simply using 's-Gravenhage without the title.

Burg. is short for "Burgemeester" in English the Mayor of the city.

No need to use his job title as PLACE OF ISSUE.

You can use 's Gravenhage
