  • previous names,
  • Birth date,
  • Place of birth (and country if born abroad)
  • Marital status,
  • current nationalities,
  • previous addresses,
  • Move-in and move-out dates,
  • Surname, first name and address of the legal representative
  • Surname, first name and address of spouse or life partner
  • Date and place of death (if death occurred abroad, also the country)
