verify a suspicious thai police clearance certificate
fake thai police clearance — how to spot (scam alert)
thai PCC while on non-immigrant B / O / ED visa
Can I apply for a thai police clearance from overseas without flying back to Thailand?
Yes. We handle the full round-trip: you get fingerprinted at a local police station or Thai embassy, ship the prints + a certified passport copy + notarised Power of Attorney to us, and we submit at the Royal Thai Police Criminal Records Division in Pathum Wan on your behalf. Final PCC is couriered to you via DHL worldwide.
How long does it take end-to-end?
Standard 7–14 business days once fingerprints reach our office; Express 3–5 business days for a premium fee. Add 2–3 days for MFA legalisation, and 1–14 days for embassy legalisation depending on the target consulate.
What is the total cost, from raw PCC to embassy-legalised English version?
PCC only: price on request (standard) or quoted on request (express). Adding certified English translation, MFA legalisation and one embassy legalisation typically totals price on request depending on destination country and urgency. We quote a fixed price in writing before starting.
Do I need MFA (Department of Consular Affairs) legalisation, or is embassy legalisation enough?
For most destinations MFA legalisation is mandatory before embassy accepts the document. HCCH Apostille countries only need MFA-issued Apostille (from Jan 2026 Thailand joined HCCH). We advise per country in the intake call.
Does a prior misdemeanor or DUI mean my visa will be refused?
Not automatically — the thai PCC will show records still on file, but visa refusal is decided by the destination Immigration under their own character-assessment rules. Our in-house lawyers offer a free 15-minute consultation before you decide to apply.
How do I verify a thai PCC is authentic?
Every certificate carries a serial number, a Criminal Records Division stamp, and (after Jan 2026) a QR code linking to the RTP verification portal. We can also provide a signed authenticity letter for immigration lawyers and HR departments.
