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 diplomatic mission attestation. This is Thailand's legalization chain — Thailand has not joined the Hague Apostille Convention 1961, so true certificate authentication is not available.
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.
Translation must be done by a translator registered with the MFA Department of Consular Affairs or otherwise recognized by them. The language conversion 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.
Consular legalization happens at the MFA Department of Consular Affairs, Chaeng Wattana Road, or its regional branches. The fee is Request a quote per document for standard service (2 business days) or Request a quote for express (1 commercial day). Legalized documents carry the red MFA seal, the legalization officer's signature, and a reference number for verification.
After MFA, the final step is destination-consular post attestation in Thailand. Each consular post 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.
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.

Written from the competent authority's published rules, not marketing copy.
A Thai Police Clearance Certificate is issued by the Royal Thai Police Special Branch and reports the result of a criminal-record search performed against fingerprint records. It is not a character reference, and it is not a document a local police station can issue.
Fix the order at the outset: record check, receive the original, translate, then certify along the chain the destination requires. Skipping a step almost always causes rework. Our team can confirm the sequence for your destination by phone, LINE, or email.
