Police Clearance Certificate
Police Clearance Certificate
The Police Clearance Certificate, as it is called in Dubai, is known by different names in different countries such as:
- Police Certificates in the UK
- Criminal History Record in the USA
- Penal Clearance Certificate in Australia
- Judicial Record Extracts or Good Conduct Certificate in Canada
- Police Record Extracts in Sweden etc.
Usually, the police department of the country issues the PCC, confirming whether the applicant has any criminal record. It is proof of good conduct. You may need a PCC as an employment requirement, for example, as a school teacher. Also, you may need it for immigration purposes, study, obtaining licenses, etc.
Sometimes you may need the PCC from multiple countries. But, most times the applicant may not be in the country to apply for it. So, it is best to let an experienced team handle the application process to save time and money.
The UAE PCC application requirements:
- Fingerprint report attested by the UAE Embassy
- Recent passport-sized photographs (soft copies)
- Copy of valid passport
- Copy of last UAE visa
- The reason for the application
- Copy of Emirates ID, if available.
The application fee is non-refundable if there is any mistake. So entering all details correctly the first time will help save money and time.
