Complete guide: Thai Police Clearance Certificate

What type of PCC does Austria require?

Austria requires MFA legalization followed by attestation at the สถานทูตออสเตรีย. Every certificate we ship carries the issuing authority's full stamp and signature, certified translation by an MFA-recognized translator, MFA consular legalization, and สถานทูตออสเตรีย attestation when required.

Austria visas commonly requiring PCC

Red-White-Red. All long-stay visas above require a PCC from every country where the applicant lived for 6–12 months or more during the past 5–10 years. Our finished certificate is ready to file immediately after the legalization chain is complete.

Workflow for clients already in Austria

(1) Sign and have the PoA legalized at the Thai embassy in Austria. (2) Ship originals and copies to our Thailand team. (3) We process the criminal records check, fingerprinting via FBI FD-258 or the Thai embassy. (4) Translation + MFA legalization + สถานทูตออสเตรีย attestation. (5) DHL/FedEx ships back to Austria in 7–15 days — total 15–30 days from dispatch.

Total cost shipping to Austria

Bundled cost shipping to Austria ranges THB 6,000–15,000 depending on number of copies, translation language, and legalization level (MFA only vs. สถานทูตออสเตรีย attestation). Postage ~ THB 2,500. Request a precise bundled quote anytime.

Documents you need to prepare before filing

The police PCC alone is valid only inside Thailand. To use it overseas, two more steps are required: (1) translation by an MFA-recognized translator, and (2) consular legalization at the Department of Consular Affairs (MFA), then optionally embassy attestation. This is Thailand's legalization chain — Thailand has not joined the Hague Apostille Convention 1961, so true apostille is not available.

Government fees and standard turnaround times

An authentic certificate carries the Garuda emblem, the Royal Thai Police logo, the applicant's name in Thai and English, national ID number, date of birth, nationality, purpose of application, the result (clear / not clear with detail), the signature of the Commander of the CRD, and the office's blue seal. The reference number can be verified with the CRD.

Difference between the police PCC and MFA / embassy legalization

Translation must be done by a translator registered with the MFA Department of Consular Affairs or otherwise recognized by them. The translation must mirror the original — dates, reference numbers, signatory name, and result. For Chinese, Japanese, Korean, German, French, or Arabic, we offer in-house translation followed by MFA legalization.

What the certificate looks like and key fields to verify

Consular legalization happens at the MFA Department of Consular Affairs, Chaeng Wattana Road, or its regional branches. The fee is THB 200 per document for standard service (2 business days) or THB 400 for express (1 business day). Legalized documents carry the red MFA seal, the legalization officer's signature, and a reference number for verification.

Translating the PCC into English and the destination language

After MFA, the final step is destination-embassy attestation in Thailand. Each embassy has its own timing, fee, and rules — typically 3–10 business days. Some require online booking; we book and submit on your behalf where embassy rules allow.

MFA consular legalization process at the Department of Consular Affairs

If you cannot visit the CRD in person, you can authorize our team via a Power of Attorney with a THB 30 stamp duty and ID copies of both grantor and representative. We schedule one visit for the legally-required fingerprint scan, then handle every remaining step.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

What if my record is not clear?
Our lawyers review the case. Minor expired offences may qualify for record erasure under the Criminal Records Act.
Do I have to attend the CRD in person?
Only for the 10-finger scan. Everything else can be handled by our team.
Is off-site fingerprinting possible?
Yes, case-by-case for elderly, bedridden, or remote foreign clients. Extra fee applies and pre-arrangement is required.
Can a foreigner's Thai PCC be used in their home country?
Yes after MFA and home-country embassy legalization. Common for foreign PR or returning home.
How far back does the police check go?
All registered criminal cases since legal adulthood.
If I changed my name, do I declare the old one?
Yes — list every former name on the form and attach all name-change certificates so the CRD can search completely.
How long does the Thai Police Clearance take?
Standard 7–15 business days at the CRD, plus 2–10 days for MFA and embassy — total 10–25 days. Same-day express is available case-by-case.
What are the government fees?
THB 100 for the Thai version, THB 200 for the English version. MFA legalization is THB 200 (standard) or THB 400 (express) per document.
Can someone request the PCC on my behalf?
Yes, with a Power of Attorney bearing a THB 30 stamp duty and ID copies of both parties. The applicant must still attend the fingerprinting once.
Can Thais abroad request a Thai PCC?
Yes — sign a PoA at a Thai embassy abroad, ship the documents to us, and fingerprint via the Thai embassy or the FBI FD-258 form.
