> in germany only severe crimes get on the permanent record. everything else will be removed after a few years. there is a separate record for youth crimes which is not included in your criminal record and is removed at age 24 if you didn't commit a severe crime. This is true of most states, though the fact that your juvenile record was sealed and expunged may itself be a record.
